Phosphorescent - The Waves At Night Lyrics






Where are we and where do we
And where will we finally
Trade our teeth for rays for wheat
To lay and sleep underneath

O love too eager to cross
O love we meet and you pause
O love too eager to cross
You see what you've lost?

The crazy streets, amazing grief
The taste of sweet offerings
The blazing heat, the naked beasts
Great barrier reefs, all for thee

O love too eager to cross
O love we meet and you pause
O love too eager to cross
You see what you've lost?

The waves at night all brave and bright
The dance hall lights, o all your life
To lay and weep, to trade our teeth
To aim and achieve grace and peace

    Where are we, and where do we
    And where will we finally
    Trade our teeth for rays for wheat
    To lay and sleep underneath

    [Chorus]
    Oh love, too eager to cross
    Oh love, we meet and you pause
    Oh love, too eager to cross
    You see what you've lost?

    The crazy streets, amazing grief
    The taste of sweet offerings
    The blazing heat, the naked beasts
    Great barrier reefs, all for thee

    [Chorus]

    The waves at night, all brave and bright
    The dance hall lights, all your life
    To lay and weep, to trade our teeth
    To aim and achieve grace and peace
