Wildbirds & Peacedrums - "Peeling Off the Layers"



https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qzfg8ziVInI

There in the day come to me
Straight into my arms
I try to hold it
But it just ran through my fingers
The ocean
They come to me
Straight into my arms
I tried to caress it
But it rand right through my fingers

Water will keep running
And rivers will turn
(x3)

So how can I ever find
What I'm looking for?
When it's been closer
Stuck at the nights
The wind blows from north to south
But I'm still where I was
Keep taking some shirts off
And taking them off

Peel off the layers
Peel it off
Peel off the layers
Peel it off
Peel off the layers
Peel it off
Peel off the layers
Peel it off

I wish I could find a cure
And to know my disease
But like nothing is heard of
The circle of all of life
And let you carry me to the other side
There is looking just like this
With the sink on the open

Everything is so far
Leaking about
Everything is so far
Leaking about
Everything is so far
Leaking about
Everything is so far
Leaking about

I ran to the window as fast as could be
I thought you were somebody else
I thought you were me
I thought I had lost everything and found you instead
I fell fast asleep in your arms I woke up in bed

I was waiting for you
I was sat in the sun
I could picture your face on the tip of my tongue
I woke up laughing
I broke into a sweat
I broke into a run
You were hot in my heels so I hired a gun
I woke up laughing
I was flat on my back
I was taking a plunge
It was making a stand but my plan was undone
I woke up laughing
Well I planned an escape for the middle of june
But I drug too fast and I fire too soon
I woke up laughing
Woke up laughing

You make yourself a fortune, out in hong kong
You sit at home and wonder whether you were wrong
You take a small vacation just to keep sane
You find on your return your home has blown away
You meditate, you make haste
You run a risk, you come late,
You pay a bill, you lose face
You're not fully unaware
Your star or your fate
If you fall do you break
You go to war, you make love
You sign out in a box

[Repeat whole song]
