Bat for Lashes
Winter Fields
[Verse 1]
Hurtling through heavy snow
Our hands are cold and the moon sets low
Little sister, let your sharp teeth show
Past winter fields
[Verse 2]
Stop the car by the old wire post
Scaredy rabbits make good paper ghosts
That lick the salt off the Sussex coast
And fall into winter fields
[Chorus]
Rows of white
Spelled our escape in the old torch light
Oh mother, I'm scared to close my eyes
Some winter dreams make you dive and dive and dive down
[Verse 3]
In sub-zero I can't stand still
Colours of absence flooding the hill
In wonderment, I trip and spill
Through winter fields
[Verse 4]
Under the stairs taps the metronome
The diver's suit that we've all outgrown
I need to get to where the wild things roam
Through all of my winter dreams
[Chorus]
Rows of white
Spelled our escape in the old torch light
Oh mother, I'm scared to close my eyes
Some winter dreams make you dive and dive and dive down
