Quilt - Tie Up the Tides Lyrics
Tie up the tides as they rising, as they fallWhat can I get? What can I hold?Should I even ask these things at all?!Though I live by candle light and only if I’d knowI’m walking down this road aloneWe watch the Earth for a good will unfoldUntil I find my golden homeI left a world of dreams and entered one anewA planetary truth is born of lightningThere’s nothing left when you suffocate the hoursSpent beyond what time you had to offerThough I live by candle light and only if I’d knowI’m walking down this road aloneWe watch the Earth for a good will unfoldUntil I find my golden homeAs it goes making up, it’s mine down into my bonesIsn’t this what you brought me here for?This parallel of backwards gifts slips into my eyesIsn’t this what I felt the need for?Oh, child, you keep living that way in your own timeOh, child, you keep living that way in your own timeThis feeling back up circles and this loop through which I’m thrownThe Moon will never keep us from unfoldingI point my way back home until my fingertips turn blueThere is no me and there is no youThough I live by candle light and only if I’d knowI’m walking down this road aloneWe watch the Earth for a good will unfoldUntil I find my golden home
