selkie bride - anand wilder lyrics

[verse 1]
warm me with two cows
passing notes talking out loud in forbidden language
am i in heaven now
cause all i can remember is a great dark seal
that bore me along

[verse 2]
take a selkie for a bride
as long as i can keep the hide up in the rafters
and no one even pries
but once you’ve made her cradle, better keep your eye on
the motion of the sea

[chorus]
neither chains of steel or chains of love will stop a selkie when she finds her skin
and there’s not one soul she won’t leave in the cold
can’t stop a selkie when she finds her skin

[verse 3]
poor little sprout
jim, this laundromat’s too loud
she should be by the water
they’ve got no mother now
so put the label on her, there’s a ferry at dawn
her marbles are gone
[verse 4]
there’s something said about village boys
the poison fumes the traffic noise
they’re barely standing
they’re gainfully employed
but the city girls aren’t taken with their stories of yore
they’ve heard it all before

[chorus]
neither chains of steel or chains of love will stop a selkie when she finds her skin
and there’s not one soul she won’t leave in the cold
can’t stop a selkie when she finds her skin
neither chains of steel or chains of love will stop a selkie when she finds her skin
and there’s not one soul she won’t leave in the cold
can’t stop a selkie when she finds her skin

[outro]
can’t stop a selkie when she finds her skin
