The Salt Lyrics by Prairie Empire

The Salt

2016

The night comes on
Silent and still
My hands folded and in my lap
I, I'm still not sure
If you'll come back
Come back around
If I'll let you in again
You are the salt in my blood
You are the one that I love
You are the one that I love most
You're running through my veins and I
I cannot bring myself to change
This thing that I have come to know so well
I'd let this all go
I'd let it all fall
I'd put it all down for you
Sometimes the thing that you love
Is simply a sieve to
Pour your entire life through
But oh
You are the salt in my blood
You are the one that I love
You are the one that I love the most
You running through my veins and I
I cannot bring myself to change
This thing that I have come to know so well
So long
You are the salt and I am the ocean
You are the view from a window left open
In these winter months
As we move through the cold
You are the salt, and I am the snow
You are the night and I have been warned
You will bleed me
You will
Bleed me dry
You are, you are, you are the salt
And you are, you are, you are the salt
And you are, you are
You are the salt in my blood, my love
You are, you are, you are the salt
And you are, you are, you are the salt
And you are, you are
You are the salt in my blood, my love
My love, my love
