Start To Call (A Thousand Hearts)

from A Thousand Hearts EP by Britt Kusserow

/

lyrics

At night I hear the drums
beating like a thousand hearts
I mourn the chosen ones
for telling them and us apart

Orion reappears
to meet the Southern Crosss
I have shared my fears
you have shared my loss

But the night grows cold
so you take my hand
as the ocean shouts aloud

Well I am like this child
curious, but hesitant
These waters and this wild
may dilute my confidence

And though I dreamed for months
imagined in a drunken state
Soon my dreams came true
with a slightly different taste

But the night grows cold
so you take my hand
and I have to laugh aloud

(interval)

The sun sets like a stain
I have never seen so far
You and I remain
waiting for the brightest star

Til the night grows cold
so you take my hand
as I start to call this home
