[Verse]
             
And I've been 

              
getting urges 

          
late at night
             
To walk and wa

              
lk for days an

              
d throughout l

 
ights
             
Through people

              
's houses, pic

              
king food from

   
 plates
             
Through people

              
's gardens, pi

              
cking locks on

   
 gates


[Chorus]
            
So we are movi

            
ng to a lighth

             
ouse, you and 

I
             
While seas dro

            
wn sailors, we

             
'll be locked 

             
up safe and dr

y
            
And though our

             
 doors may kno

             
ck and rattle 

        
in the wind
             
I'll just hold

              
 you tight and

             
 we'll not let

[Verse]
             
And I've been 

              
leaving gifts 

          
out in the woo

ds
             
That someone m

              
ight stumble u

            
pon and wonder

 at their orig

ins
             
I've been feel

              
ing like a fox

              
 with sad old 

 
eyes
             
The skulkers a

              
ll moved on to

         
 leave the dar

[Pre-Chorus]
            
I'll anull the

s of attrition

              
 and these inv

That's seen me

To self-docume

              
nt these new l

     
ocations
              
When I should 

    
be leaning aga

inst you
            
Deciding on th

              
ings to get do

 
ne
              
And you should

     
 be leaning on

 fountains
            
And filling my

              
 space up and 

             
breathing the 

             
air from my lu

Na na na na
