Wolf - Big Thief

Hello to the morning moon

Woke up as you left the room

Pillow still warm

Scent like meadow grass

Has the feeling come to pass?

Has the feeling come to stay?

What can we say?

Wishing you would hang around

Living on the waterfront

Witnessing the gameless hunt

Mermaids don’t kill

That’s the way they sing so fine

Now your lips are on the line

Now there is a broken tongue

Met you so young

Felt so frozen

How you seem to follow through

On everything you yearn for

Steps so fair

So much certainty

Now as far as we can see

The water’s getting deeper

My safekeeper

The wolf is howling for me

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh

When she holds me in her jaw

All my blood dripping

Will I be free

To cease gripping?

Finally laying on the ground

Open hands empty

I’ll return back again

If she’ll let me

Ooh, ooh

Ooh, ooh
