lirik lagu harbour – paper bird (at)
[verse 1]
i know this town, grown onto the cliffs, and i
i know the sight of the creatures that came to live
between greys and blues above golden shores
and i take my time to listen to the water, oh
[chorus]
in the dark of the night, right there behind the hill, you scared me
and i knew you were there; you were there all day long
and you can’t get away from me, no never, now i shiver
and i stare at you and i wonder if you stare back
or if you even care that i’m here, or if you ever care about anything
and i’m scared of that
[verse 2]
and i know the smell from the harbour
(i know the smell from the harbour)
it smells like home, mother, crying voices of
the hundred babies born since new year’s day
when we started to count again
all these days that are left for us
to make new friends around here
[chorus]
and you crept in the night, right there behind the hill
and you scared me
up there, behind the back of the houses
with a big blue television screen in every room
and people sleeping in their beds
and eventually never listening
and i’m the only one in this town, the only one in this peninsula
who is looking at you
but doesn’t dare to come close because you hover beneath my eyes
[verse 3]
i painted a picture of a seagull lost in skies
and i wrote a song about the day we realize we’ve grown up a little
because we start to think in numbers
and the day i plan to come here in a weird and dull december, oh
[chorus]
maybe a big arm, with a big hand
and ten seaborn fingers and ten seaborn toes
and then the black sand, which wedges
the moonlight showed it to my mood
which lays your limbs, your thousand eyes
which shape a thousand sheer laces
that slowly rise out of the moonlit waves to seduce me
and pull me in
[verse 4]
[overlapping previous chorus]
waiting on that street on which we go from beach to beach, and
waiting on the stairs that link to the bar that leads us where my figure
steps aside for something
i tried to hide a longing, a love, for this
[chorus]
in the dark of the night, right there, behind the hills, you scared me
you roar with all the hugeness, endlessness
into the night, up the hills, into the room
dance under the clean white sheets
between the pages at your fingertips
and you roar into my ears, and you roar in my dreams
[verse 5]
i know this town grown onto the cliffs, and i
i know the sight of the creatures that came to live
between greys and blues above golden shores
and i take my time to listen to the water, oh
[chorus]
and you roar into my ears, and you roar in my dreams, and you roar
you never did frighten the birds, which is ever convenient
and the history and magnitude of roaring seem kind
and tonight it’s so pleasant, at the peninsula
my black*limbed pursuer
in the dark of the night, right there, behind the hills, you screamed
