Song for the Selkies
Heavy in my arms
Won’t you fall asleep
Gonna catch you in my dreams
Like we’re swimming through the sea
Carry you to shore
One step at a time
In a long and crooked line
As the waves sweep by
Feel the cold waves washing
Footsteps lost like snow falling
falling from the sky
Need a shelter soon
Cause it looks like rain
Wind is playing in the trees
And the sky is turning grey
If I ask you why
Don’t you stay a while
There’s a table set for two
in about another mile
Feel the cold waves washing
Footsteps lost like snow falling
falling from the sky
