Fanfarlo - A Distance Lyrics
You move in waves, there is a distance when you speakI read the signs, try to decipher the emotionsAnd look at lines like reading numbers on a screenIt builds inside, a tidal wave that’s coming closer every dayIt’s just a lot to know.It’s just a lot to swallow.I’ve got a lot to say, I’ve got a lot to shareI’ve got a lot to say to a disinterested callerTalking at a distanceListening at a distanceWe stand as if on the inside looking outWe read the signs, making millions of connectionsI’m doing just fine – the things I need are getting cheaper every dayIt’s just a lot to know.It’s just a lot to swallow.I’ve got a lot to say, I’ve got a lot to shareI’ve got a lot to say to a disinterested callerTalking at a distanceListening at a distanceSynapses firing, we’re onto youWe’re untangling the wiring, we’re onto youWon’t be fooled or deceived again, oh noThe SeaThere is a big idea, a deep collective longing“Things were better then, but we’ll go back some day”When we’re looking at that big blue deep expanse and saying:We can always run awayGet in a big black carAnd drive it all the way till we feel at home againAnd when we’re at the beachWe’ll parade into the wavesAs far as we can reachDrag me down – back into the seaIt’s in the blood, it never said farewellAnd when we fill our lungs we’llSlow it down – back into the seaAll the cities we have builtAll the centuries we have killedWe could be swimming in the oceanA million years from nowWe could throw it all awaySo we feel at home againAnd when we’re at the beachWe’ll parade into the wavesAs far as we can reachDrag me down – back into the seaIt’s in the blood, it never said farewellAnd when we fill our lungs we’llSlow it down – back into the seaThe WildernessThere was a sign on the horizonSome kind of promise in the airWe could already feel it all begin to changeSo we willed away the demonsFelt safe in strangers’ armsThough the poison already seeping through the groundThen we waited by our windowsAs it rained the summer monthsAnd we knew we were slowly running out of timeTo get cleanNow there’s a wilderness that’s waitingTo come take hold of usAnd there’s something inside that’s just begun to hatchAnd unfolding, deathly wingsThat will wrap around your heartAnd bring you all the way into the fireTo get cleanWitchi Tai To(Jim Pepper)Witchi tai to, gimee rahHoe rah neeko, hoe rah neekoHey ney, hey ney, no wayWitchi tai to, gimee rahHoe rah neeko, hoe rah neekoHey ney, hey ney, no wayWater Spirit feelin’ springing’ round my headMakes me feel glad that I’m not dead?
