Love lyrics - Charlotte Church

When I came out from the river

When I came out from the river

When I was still small

When I was still safe

And I didn't have to contemplate

Love

When I went back to the water

And I emerged with a daughter

My arms were full of life

Life reached her arms out to cradle us

I didn't have to

I didn't have to

I didn't have to complicate

Love

Sparrow lyrics - Charlotte Church

I awake

Most days

Below a robins nest

With my wings

So cold

And a heart that overflows

To redden snow.

I've been an envelope,

Are you the sparrow?

With a letter-red

Blood-fluttered

In plumes

For the bayonet

Has carved away,

And it carves away

At the arrowhead

Lodged within my breast.

Sparrow,

We all end up 

Buried in the snow

So pick leaves and cover me;

Pluck the arrow

From my breast and let me rest

So far below

The robin's nest.

Remains lyrics - Charlotte Church

And when the bough has broken

Red amber ash of fractal light

Breaks up to form new gods

Falling down, falling

In glazed blue droplets of sound

And pounding hearts

Pumping water.

(And when the bough has broken

And when the cradle's fallen

Take what remains

And build new gods

To pray we can exist in an ocean abyss

What else is there?

What else is there?)

Like A Fool lyrics - Charlotte Church

I got worked up like a fool,

Now I need to wash myself with thoughts

As pure as water.

I got worked up like a fool for you,

I don't need those flowers 

To make myself as pure as water.

Mountain water

Flash my veins

Flush me out

I think I'm losing touch;

I'm diaphonous, a figure of smoke and mirrors.

I think I'm losing touch with you.

Is my smile bent,

A rod seen through the clearest water?

Mountain water

Flood my lungs

Won't you pull me out

Pull me out

Pull me out

Pull me out

Of the rising water.

Magician's Assistant lyrics - Charlotte Church

You box me up

So you can cut me in half.

I'm a loop to you,

You connect me up

Or split me in two.

I'll be the dove

You can hide in your hand

I'll be kissing the keys to you

And go limp as a glove in your hands.

Such magic hands.

Oh, 

Hide me behind a mirror

There I'll stay

Until I hear

Those words

Such incantations

Those words

As if from another time and space

Drifting through the darkness

I'll step out

And we'll bring down the house.

Is there anything that we can't do

As long as within we there's you?

You and your loop.

Those words

Such incantations

Those words

As if from another time and space

Drifting through the darkness.

I'll step out

And we'll bring down the house

Is there anything that we can't do

As long as within we there's you?

House Upon The Sea lyrics - Charlotte Church

Here we are

A house upon the sea

A bad dream

The woods on the hill are aware

And there's a terrible voice that echoes around

The wind has it's sting

Puts the salt in your skin

And morning light clears

Oh won't you bring me to rest

Says I should fake a death

And failing that

I should enter the house

And face what I left

Upon the water

Here we are

House upon the sea

And I know it's but a bad dream

The morning light

The morning light 

Will clear

But it's all so real

The dark reflects the day

Like a shadow on the waves.

I Can Dream lyrics - Charlotte Church

I can dream

I can dream

I'd build a castle for a crystal cup

I'd flood the ravine just to

Raise you up

I can dream

I can dream

Freezing the snowfall for your favourite view

Whip up a firestorm just to

Warm you 

Through

Oh I will deliver when I sleep

I deliver you and wake

Oh with a shiver when I sleep

I will shake myself 

To face the day

Oh I will deliver when I sleep 

I make promises

I can dream

I can dream

Fill up the glasses

A toast to the sick-sweet

The best and the better

The best

The ever-ripening best

Oh I will deliver when I sleep

I deliver you and wake

Oh with a shiver when I sleep

I will shake myself

To face the day

Oh I will deliver when I sleep

I make promises

I make promises

Water Tower lyrics - Charlotte Church

I am a water tower

Heavy is my head

And when the land around you is dying

I will keep your fields fed

I will keep your belly full

I will keep your family whole

I am indestructible.

The things with tiny bones

Scurry round my legs

And they nag at me with their hopes;

Little dreams for little heads.

I wish I could clear them all,

Sweep them up combustible,

Burn them in a crucible.

From their sacrifice a light

To keep you company tonight

Keep you company tonight.

Snap them up like crocodile

Retreat to river with a smile;

Just to know

They won't 

Be bugging you anymore,

That's a fair reward.
