Lyrics
Earthly Bodies
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Let me lie across your christened spine
Press my belly to the mountain side
Glorious our earthly bodies rise
Fall and rise
The (?) and my eyes are dry
Though the spirit and truth abide
When you stir throughout the wake-less night
Stir and Sigh
Oh
I love you (?)
Oh
D-d-d-d-d-d-doo-d-doo (x2)
Without joy, I left without recourse
I approached the giants who came before us
In a resurrected voice
I can conjure up a soundless voice
Baby lay your head
We begin an end
Oh
I love you (?)
Oh
D-d-d-d-d-d-doo-d-doo (x2)
