These words Patterns you plant in the soil Little hooks Fill books You're hoping they'll pull you up Catkin on conifer I wear you proud as a year in spring Longing with the swoop of hawks Bringing hunger to the game The song is unchanged Back in my armour glazed My head's in barricades I find it easier to dream the day Following a night spent sleepless with you All the words connect me through I was yesterday and yesterday dropped me in you Left hook Round the brook Relatively honest If only for a crook Creaking on your porch Even the mattress applauds Lets blacken our hull once more While my hearts intact Love is the fact Back in my armour glazed My head's in barricades I find it easier to dream the day Following a night spent sleepless with you I do not know My way back While my heart's Still intact Love is the fact
