With Every Departure

from A Forest Of Arms by Great Lake Swimmers

/

lyrics

With every departure, with every return
Our eyes spill out and the edges blur
With every departure, a promise to return
To your arms, again to burn

How far will you fly
Towards the other side
How far will you go
Before you come back home

And though ranging over uncertain seas
Flocks migrate: locks without keys
And on with the current, and back again
Flight patterns under the skin

How far will you fly
Towards the other side
How far will you go
Before you come back home
