Lyrics Nest - Half Waif

Nest

Gathering the papers:
Gonna make you a nest
For you, my love
Only the very best
Quiet the machines:
I’m gonna give you a rest
For you, my love
Only the very best
On the boat, you are rocking
I am watching far away
Close my eyes;
when they open
You have fallen in the waves
Grab your wrist, feel the life drain
Right out of your veins
Never mind, I’ll keep pulling
'Til I know that you’re safe
Gathering the ashes
Gonna take whatever’s left
I only know how to love you the best
On the day that you weaken
All your energy will fade
Close your eyes;
when they open
I will offer you a stage
Don’t you cry, I’ll keep watching
'Til I know that you’re safe
