Bat For Lashes

Bat's mouth

The caves of our mouths are forests,

Darkness and the air,

In between this sofa,

Flowing and the rushing,

wolverine flies past, his shiny shiny teeth,

She is kind, he is free

Full of knowing



She is sure (x2)

The caves of our mouths are bear's

bellies and the air

In between this spewing,

Comets and the dancing,

Centre queen flies past, her tiny tiny teeth

He is kind, she is free

Wants to show him



She is sure (x3)



Find him in the bat's mouth

He is singing in her bat's mouth

He is shaking and dancing in a bat mouth

He is getting tired and sleeping in a bat mouth

And she's holding him tight in a bat mouth

She is wrapping him up in a bat mouth

And she (...) Nervous

See, thank you mother, see

For letting him see the sea in me.



She is sure (x8)
