lyrics

I woke in the garden, and I heard the serpent's call,
But, despite their warnings, you don't sound like him at all.
And as he told me stories of the life that we would lead,
I felt my feet grow tangled in the web that he did weave.

But I don't believe, you don't know
Yours is the hand I want to hold.
You give me your gaze, we both know,
I want your soul.

I walked the great valley, and I swam across the sea,
No matter where I found myself, you were still there with me.
I slept 'tween the moon beams, and I bathed in the dew.
Yet, from every angle, I still smelled like you.

But I don't believe, you don't know
Yours is the hand I want to hold
You give me your gaze, we both know,
I want your soul.
You're keeping me still, cast your net,
Seeing what else that you can catch,
I try to be patient, hold my breath, we both know,
That I want your soul.

And when I heard the thunder, I climbed the highest tree,
So that maybe if I died, then God would make a bird of me.
Lightning struck the branches and I felt myself sprout wings.
I opened up to speak, yours was the voice that did ring.

But I don't believe, you don't know
Yours is the hand I want to hold
You give me your gaze, we both know,
I want your soul.
You're keeping me still, cast your net,
Seeing what else that you can catch,
I try to be patient, hold my breath, we both know,
That I want your soul.
