Coming Down Lyrics

Tears falling slow

From the bridge

into the river below

In your eyes, I start to see

A starry veil,

the ocean of infinity

Moon and stars above me

Mingle with the blood

inside my vein

These empty arms

that should be

Holding you close

through nights of winter rain

I'm trying to spell

What only the wind can explain

It's colder than ever

Coming down

I'm drowning in shallows

Cos it's in so deep

There's neon melting in the rain

Took too much powder to sleep

Cos when I hold you naked

When I hear your laugh

I got a sword to stem the rivers

And cut the moon in half

Frozen stars above me

Mingle with the blood

inside my vein

Empty arms that should be

Holding you close

through nights of winter rain

I'm trying to spell

What only the wind can explain

It's colder than ever

Coming down

We danced wild

Kicked off our shoes

Not a cloud

in the skies to confuse

But now the sky is cold

And the sea is wide

And there's nothing to be done

'cept reflecting the sun

And scratching the mountainside

Frozen stars above me

Mingle with the blood

inside my vein

Empty arms that should be

Holding you close

through nights of winter rain

And I'm trying to spell

What only the wind can explain

It's colder than ever

Coming down
