Future Islands – Sail

In an Escher town
In the Palace Gallen, hidden low
And the peaks stay Saint
And the streets wind up and down below
To the balcony
Where the hands embrace amidst the rows
And the flickering screen
And the smell of almonds in the grove

Don’t leave
Don’t leave
To come so close to offer this
Don’t leave, won’t leave

And the screen says, “Stay,” every time
The image it plays in my mind
And we say Grace
Every time we’re in this place
Is it mine in the mirror?
Is it mine or the mirror that we make?

Where we haven’t run
Deep into the rows
Where the olives grow
Lost in the unknown
Until lost is all we know
And the pollen silt
Till we’re tracing in the snow

And down into the screen
Says “Stay,” every time
The image it’s burned in my mind
And we say Grace
Every time we’re face-to-face
Is it mine in the mirror?
Is it mine or the mirror that we make?

Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
To make all the time it takes
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
All the time
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
Don’t leave
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
All the time
Take all the time it takes
All the time
To make all the time it takes
Don’t leave
Take all the time
All the time

Future Islands – Find Love

I was alone when I found out, nothing is what it seems
In paramour, in arrogance and dreams
I was alone again at the start of another spring
Here, with all the petals turning red
My heart was turning green

And so I walked around the lake
And there, sitting in the sea
A young lady who called my name
She opened up to me

In fair her hair, the light of air
Found wisdom in her life
Two pecans where here soul stared
Throughout the white light

She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart to me”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart to me, and you may find what you seek”

“I wanna find love, I wanna call your love my love”
“I wanna find love, I wanna call your love my love”
“Well, you’ll never find love, you’ll never find a love like I love”
“Well, you’ll never find love, unless you open your heart, my love”

She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart to me”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart to me and you may find what you seek”

“I wanna find love, I wanna call your love my love”
“I wanna find love, I wanna call your love my love”
“Well, you’ll never find love, you’ll never find a love like I love”
“Well, you’ll never find love, unless you open your heart, my love”

She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart to me”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart”
She said, “Open your heart to find the things you want in this life”
“The things you want in this life”
