Creatures Lyrics by Maggie Rogers

The Echo

2012

[Verse 1]
Well, I've lived a short life
Not a lot of things that I've seen
But in that short life
Lot of things that I've been

[Verse 2]
I've been a daughter
And a sister too
I've been in trouble
And I've been in love with you

[Chorus 1]
We are all just creatures, baby
Fumbling towards the light
And I'm crawling on my knees now, baby
Won't you make my heart alright?
Won't you make my heart alright?

[Verse 3]
Well there is an old house
That I think about sometimes
With all its creaky floorboards
And height marks of an outgrown child

[Verse 4]
But it burnt down sometime ago
Or so it would seem
And I still see its dying colors
In the Autumn leaves

[Chorus 2]
And we are all just creatures, baby
Longing to be free
And if we're all just creatures, baby
Won't you give your heart to me?
Won't you give your heart to me?

[Verse 5]
Well, I swim in the river
Only once or twice each year
But I found that the river
It was often insincere

[Verse 6]
So now I dip my toes in
Still expecting to get wet
But without my whole body
My fate, it has been set

[Chorus 3]
And we are all just creatures, baby
Blinded by our fears
If you're scared of love, now, baby
You'll know only loneliness and fear
Only loneliness and fear

[Outro]
And I may only be a creature
But I'm still fumbling towards the light
