LYRICS
Runes
Come past the edge of quiet
between the notes between the words
Where a perfect song is playing
and for a moment can be heard
A faint waltzing my love, a faint waltzing my love
Somewhere
I want this like color wants the eye
Let me read the runes behind the sky
So clear
Where the quiet reveals the surprise
in the starlight chandelier
A melody of velvet
from a galaxy of dust
Come spin the record baby
let the sound surround the hush
And it’s waltzing my love, it’s waltzing my love
Like a big bass drum
The mountains the sea and the sun
Were pulled from the fire by the sound
That says come get down
I want this like color wants the eye
Let me read the runes behind the sky
So clear
Where the quiet reveals the surprise
in the starlight chandelier
A leaping in my chest, under the trees
in my summer best, with a fairy queen
in sweet july, impress the eye
Spinning me way up high in open air
Long to be tumbling upwards like a prayer
Glory be! I finally found my soul repair
Spinning me way up high in open air
I want this like color wants the eye
Let me read the runes behind the sky
So clear
Where the quiet reveals the surprise
in the starlight chandelier
