Lyrics

Intro

Ooh-oh, la-la (come)

Hush-hush, la-la (come)

Ta-ta-take the tide, take the tide

Ah-ah-ah, ah-ah-ah (come)

Verse

Lanterns sink where the shoreline breathes

Name on my tongue like a bell beneath

You step light, you step slow (come)

Kelp like ribbons around your ankles, fold

Smell of salt, silver on the lips

A small laugh, a small eclipse (sway)

I trace a map on the curve of your ear

Call it by names you thought you forgot, dear (come)

Pre-chorus

Lean in, don't look away (lean)

Feel the seam of the water sway (feel)

One long note that knows your name (oh)

One small flame in the cold, in the cold (oh)

Chorus

Sing me nearer, sing me near (sing)

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Pull the light down to my ear (pull)

Pull the light down to my ear

La-la, la-la, la-la (come, come)

La-la, la-la, la-la (come, come)

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Verse

Rope of moon on the surface bends

Ship of thought that slowly mends

Hands that drift without a fight (oh)

Salt like sugar, warm and bright

Your name becomes the only song

You hum along before you know it long (huh)

A tiny tug, a tender theft

A memory rearranged, left and left (come)

Pre-chorus

Closer, closer, don't resist (closer)

Drop your anchors into this mist (drop)

Notes like combs comb through your skin (ah)

Notes like combs comb through your skin (ah)

Chorus

Sing me nearer, sing me near (sing)

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Pull the light down to my ear (pull)

Pull the light down to my ear

La-la, la-la, la-la (come, come)

La-la, la-la, la-la (come, come)

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Bridge

Hush — I am the low struck bell (hush)

Hush — the tide that knows you well (hush)

Oh-oh, la-la, ooh (ooh)

Ta-ta-touch the rim of the sea (ta)

Ki-ki-kiss the margin of me (kiss)

Round and round like a well-worn ring

Round and round 'til you can't tell a thing (round)

Chorus

Sing me nearer, sing me near (sing)

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Pull the light down to my ear (pull)

Pull the light down to my ear

La-la, la-la, la-la (come, come)

La-la, la-la, la-la (come, come)

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Sing me nearer, sing me near

Outro

Ooh-oh, la-la (come)

Hush-hush, la-la (come)

Ah-ah-ah...
