Red Rover Lyrics by Semler

Of the Things That Matter

2017

She said red rover, red rover
Send my love right over
I feel far away and I miss when we were closer
I said darling don't hold your breath
I've got an anvil on my chest
She said come closer

[Chorus]
Red rover
Red rover
Red rover
Before I broke her
She said red rover

[Verse]
How precious are the hands that we hold
Marching towards the bonds of the unknown
And you and I held tight as we could
My fingers flames on your palms of forеst wood
And she said come closer

[Chorus]
Rеd rover
Red rover
Red rover
Before I broke her
She said red rover

[Bridge]
Babe I'm the place you go to hide
I'm the bullet in your side
I'm the knife that cuts you red
I'm the scar that you regret
I'm the chain that holds you back
I'm the train and you're the track
I'm the hammer you're the nail
I'm the bones that keep you frail
Don't ask me to come closer

[Chorus]
Red rover
Red rover
Red rover
Before I broke her
She said red rover

Red rover
Red rover
Red rover
Before I broke her
She said red rover
