Lyrics

Threshold

Your eyes have been on the horizon lately
Mine too
Getting trains, one change
Say you miss me, say the same
It’s all true
Stretch your skin out, read it like a map
One way trip
Busy man, busy woman
Still come home, the door’s open
There we sit

There we sit in the secret garden together
But I’d move, I’d move for you
Pull my limbs out of their immobility
Cross the country to step through a door as two
There we sit in the garden together
But I’d move for you

I’ve never been very good at journeys
The long haul
But lately the land passing by seems a blessing
To honour
A sacrifice is needed to keep moving
What to give
Don’t worry your head, I’ll leave it under your bed
A gift

There we sit in the secret garden together
But I’d move, I’d move for you
Pull my limbs out of their immobility
Cross the country to step through a door as two
There we sit in the garden together
But I’d move for you

How brave do you feel right now
No time for flight
Ignore that sound
A hand with bitten nails is still a hand to hold
Walk with me over the threshold
Over the threshold
Over the threshold
Over the threshold

There we sit in the secret garden together
But I’d move, I’d move for you
Pull my limbs out of their immobility
Cross the country to step through a door as two
