Lyrics
Deep Country
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.
It might be madness
Or it might be love
One sleight of your hand
I lose what I was thinking of
I think of oceans
I think of trees
When you lose sight of that edge
You know you're in too deep
But it's like trying to run under water
I wish I'd stopped at the border 'cause it's
Deep country
Deep country I'm in
Deep country here with you
My mind's half empty
And my heart's half full
If I showed the dark side of this soul
Would you still feel it's pull
Sometimes it's too much responsibility
Let's make a deal
And you stay you and I'll stay me
But it's like trying to run under water?
I'm a stranger to this land
The lines on your face
I know by heart
If I trace them back
Would I find where you end
And where I start
You lose perspective
Up this close
No fear of flying
It's just falling that scares me the most
But it's like trying to run under water?
