Spiral Arms

(album: Skellig - 2021)

Til I'm caught in your spiral arms
Til I'm caught in your spiral arms
Til I'm caught in your spiral arms
And it all falls away

Lead a skittish horse
Through the fields of gorse
Till the jagged edges soften
Wrap those feet of clay
In the sweet decay
Strip the layers away
Till I'm less than nothing

And I'm caught in your spiral arms
And I'm caught in your spiral arms
And I'm caught in your spiral arms
As it all falls away

Scale the dizzy heights
Of that eastern light
Look for life beneath what's frozen
Get our just desserts
We're so close it hurts
But we get there just as the doors are closing

To be caught in your spiral arms
To be caught in your spiral arms
To be caught in your spiral arms
Let it all fall away

So it's skin on skin
Let the games begin
Find a brighter way of growing
If you'd take my hand
Baby help me stand
I'm a cup that's full to overflowing

And I'm caught in your spiral arms
And I'm caught in your spiral arms
And I'm caught in your spiral arms
And I'm caught in your spiral arms

And I'm caught in your spiral arms
Yeah I'm caught in your spiral arms
Yeah I'm caught in your spiral arms
When I'm caught in your spiral arms
And I'm caught in your spiral arms
And I'm caught in your spiral arms
