The Brook Lyrics - Hitch - The Joy Formidable

On the great blue hill 

All the distance died, I became your water 

As the atlas falls 

Let's start running over, smoothing every stone 

You, move, touch 

Every sacred trace, I want to lose control, give you the underneath 

You, us, here 

I feel it tracing everywhere 

Just take all of me 

Maybe the brook won't save me 

It's racing at my side 

But I know 

I only run high to low 

Maybe the brook won't carry a heavy heart that's grown 

And I know 

I only run high to low 

Forget the echo below 

Come to the sound that you know 

That will never leave 

I'm in love with vanishing 

I'm in love with what could have been 

And it's not real 

You, move, touch 

Every sacred trace, I want to lose control, give you the underneath 

You, us, here 

I feel it tracing everywhere 

Just take all of me 

Maybe the brook won't save me 

It's racing at my side 

But I know 

I only run high to low 

Maybe the brook won't carry a heavy heart that's grown 

And I know 

I only run high to low 

You're here with me 

Alive with me 

A glowing heart that blinds the tired game 

I'm shame 

Oh, this valley holds your name 

Baby 

This tower put me in the clouds 

What did I see? 

I saw further than ever before 

Stitches of fields from the cliffs to the moors 

And across our garden, from the town to the estuary 

It falls quick into the pale blue sea 

Where everything becomes nothing 

Maybe the brook won't save me 

It's racing at my side 

But I know 

I only run high to low 

Maybe the brook won't carry a heavy heart that's grown 

And I know 

I only run high to low
