Lille Lyrics - Sea Sew - Lisa Hannigan

He went to see for a day 

He wanted to know what to say 

When he asked what he'd done 

In the past to someone 

That he loved endlessly 

Now she's gone, and so is he 

I went to war every morning 

I lost my way, but now I'm following 

What you said in my arms 

What I read in the charms 

That I loved durably 

Now it's dead and gone, and I am free 

I went to sleep for the daytime 

I shut my eyes to the sunshine 

Turned my head away from the noise 

Bruise and drip decay of childish toys 

That I love arguably 

All our laboring gone to seed 

We went out to play for the evening 

And wanted to hold on to the feeling 

And the stretch in the sun 

And the breathlessness as we run 

To the beach endlessly 

As the sun creeps up on the sea
