Cannot Keep A Secret Lyrics by Emma Pollock

In Search Of Harperfield

0

Cross the water with me
And I guarantee by morning we will land
Your fingers stretched in sand
Staring out to sea
Walk the Crana and the Swan
Raising a half as night falls
To names engraved on windowpanes
To the patriarchs reclaimed
Will you dip your toe gently in the water?
Send the ripples home whipping up a storm
Will you make amends with the changing currents?
They eddy and they flow and bring your sister's home
You said "Look at my face"
Tell me the truth
I am not long for this world
And our selfish ways are the source of much disgrace
Post a letter in the trees
Ask the enchanted
‘Won’t you please give us more days like these?’
Chasing Emperors & Blues diving in the breeze
Will you dip your toe gently in the water?
Send the ripples home whipping up a storm
Will you make amends with the changing currents?
They eddy and they flow and bring your sister's home
She set alight all that was right
And basked in front of firelight
She spilled her guts that night
Left you for dead
Somebody hold me back
Somebody hold me back
Somebody hold
Will you dip your toe gently in the water?
Send the ripples home whipping up a storm
Will you make amends with the changing currents?
They eddy and they flow and bring your sister's home
I cannot keep a secret
Has anybody seen it?
I cannot keep a secret
Has anybody seen it?
I cannot keep a secret
Has anybody seen it?
I cannot keep a secret
Has anybody seen it?
