Your Rocky Spine Lyrics - Ongiara - Great Lake Swimmers

I was lost in the lakes 

And the shapes that your body makes 

That your body makes 

That your body makes, that your body makes 

And the mountains said I will find you here 

They whispered the snow and the leaves in my ear 

I traced my finger along your trails 

And your body was the map, I was lost in it 

Floating over your rocky spine 

The glaciers made you and now you're mine 

Floating over your rocky spine 

The glaciers made you and now you're mine 

I was moving across your frozen veneer 

The sky was dark but you were clear 

Could you feel my footsteps? 

And would you shatter, would you shatter? Would you? 

With your soft fingers between my claws 

Like purity against resolve 

I could tell then there we were formed from the clay 

And came from the rocks for the earth to display 

They told me to be careful up there 

Where the wind rose up there, in this rage through your hair 

They told me to be careful up there 

Where the wind rages through your hair
