Lyrics Quit With Me - Lucy Wainwright Roche, Matthew Perryman Jones

Quit With Me

Quit with me
There is no closer
We will grow to be
I look out every night
Across the sea
And wait to see you hide
Your highest, lowest, reddest tide
Quit with me
Quit with me
We came to be
A misdiverted giant galaxy
Provinces rose and art and industry
That kept the lights on bright
We’d see them walking home at night
And then the trees
All blooming effortlessly
'Round our knees
Reaches of every kind
Free of disease and wounds with endearment
You were my love
You were my friend
We lost it all
We’re on an island now
That’s worse than small
When I come home it’s hard to spot it all
I swear I tried to make it out
To reach across, to hear you now
Ah-ah-ah-ah
Quit with me
There is no closer
We will grow to be
You are a burning, bleeding part of me
One thing I know is true
The path I walked was laid by you
So quit with me
Quit with me, ah-oh
Quit with me
Quit with me, ah-oh (ah-oh-ah)
