pearl’s dream - bat for lashes

There's a place i must go
there's a place i must go
it's not a place i have seen
but i'll get there in a new dream
down an ocean road
past a sign that says 'good love town'
into a darkness where the stars do drown
where the starry me needs to be free
and when the battle was done
i was promised my son
but with a thousand (k)nights gone
to any kingdom i run
and when the battle was done
i was promised my son
but with a thousand (k)nights gone
to any kingdom i run
there's a place i must go
there's a place i must go
for my heart is a child
that stumbles lonely for the arms of a bride
hear the desert sigh
sing the city's lullaby
the giant iris of the wide blue sky
showing me the way
and when the battle was done
i was promised my son
but with a thousand (k)nights gone
to any kingdom i run
and when the battle was done
i was promised my son
but with a thousand (k)nights gone
to any kingdom i run
you know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
had a big machine riding your shoulders
you know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
had a big machine riding your shoulders
you know that it's time to go up, up, up, up, up
had a big machine riding your shoulders
