Leeward Side

Leeward Side - Josh Pyke

.

And I have bound myself to your bearings

My love is a nesting bird

Lodged in the breast of her

.

Lace up your boots tied to the jagged line

Of a million different lives

Under the leeward side

.

Cause I want to be someone

Worthy of your conversation

There's madness in the moonless night

So shake off your leeward side

.

And everything that I did or did not do

In the miniature of my life

Has a lineage back to you

And some will sit on their hands

To spite their feet

But one day I know I'll see

You dancing away from me

.

Cause I want to be someone

Worthy of your conversation

There's madness in the moonless night

So shake off your leeward side

.

We all want to be someone

In the miniature of your life

The madness in a wounded sky

So shake of your salvation

.

You will want more

You will want more

You will want more

Than I can offer you

I bear you from my shore

But to my skin

And to my bones

Down to my very core

The call you'll heed is one

I will follow

.

One day you will unfold

And fall into the untold

And one day you'll long to be

Dancing away from me

.

But under the hollow sky

Past where the cells divide

And until the day I die

I'll be your leeward side

.
