The Lonely Forest

Soundings In Fathoms

You are a book with torn out pages
Thrown from your heart to the fire
I'd like to rewrite your missing chapters
Riddle your plot with desire

And I have overturned rocks
Searching for life below
Now I shall put them all back

You are an avalanche
Swiftly descending
Soon overtaking my house on a hill
I'll wait outside against all precaution
Convince myself to hold still

And I have overturned rocks
Searching for life below
Now I shall put them all back
Whoa whoaaa whoaaa

Patiently I'll wait
And by the water's edge
And soundings in fathoms
To measure out your depth

You are a body

of water so deep
I dare not dive
A fearful leviathan
Lurks underneath
Do you have something to hide?
No

And I have overturned rocks
Searching for life below
Now I shall put them all back

And patiently I'll wait
And by the water's edge
And soundings in fathoms
To measure out your depth

You are a book with torn pages
Thrown from your heart to the fire
I'd like to rewrite your missing chapters
Riddle your plot with desire

And I have overturned rocks
Searching for life below
Now I shall put them all back
