Verse
So I wake early, watch the leaves quake
In the first light, braise the trees
I hide myself in a secret place
Here I know my heart, I know it's careless
Darling you seem like you're fearless
Maybe you're my perfect fix

I live with the tides, I live in reverence
And know the days are endless, endless
But darling you seem like you're anxious
