lyrics

hold me in the cradle of the darkness darling
hole me in the cradle of the darkness darling
oh

it's all out on the table pull my heart in darling
it's all out on the table pull my heart in darling
oh

give me what you're able we can start there darling
give me what you're able we can start there darling
oh

let it go let it take you hear our lark sing darling
let it go let it take you hear our lark sing darling
oh

it all must end
to be alone
you were the glimmering ocean
you smoothed my roughest stone

all the beauty i can see
in every falling leaf
it burns, burns, you burns right through me
it burns, burns, you burn right through me

oh the magic in the plans
you traced them out in gold
how your silhouette would dance
and show me where to go

all the beauty i can see
in every falling leaf
it burns, burns, you burns right through me
it burns, burns, you burn right through me

won't you
meet me there
meet me where
it all falls right

meet me there
meet me where
the trouble never tries

how you'd kiss my head
when the thoughts would cause unrest
i knew you were mine to hold

now i can't fight the fever
'cause i lost the will to ease it
oh i miss you to the bone

hold me in the cradle of the darkness darling
hole me in the cradle of the darkness darling
oh

it's all out on the table pull my heart in darling
it's all out on the table pull my heart in darling
oh

give me what you're able we can start there darling
give me what you're able we can start there darling
oh

let it go let it take you hear our lark sing darling
let it go let it take you hear our lark sing darling
oh

i guess i can't let you go
oh it's all been moving slow
i hear the cries the mournful woes
oh but i want you so

oh, oh, oh, oh

won't you
meet me there
meet me where
it all falls right

meet me there
meet me where
the trouble never tries

how you'd kiss my head
when the thoughts would cause unrest
i knew you were mine to hold

now i can't fight the fever
'cause i lost the will to ease it
oh i miss you to the bone

oh i miss you to
i miss you to
i miss you to the bone
