Stretch Your Eyes Lyrics

Agnes Obel Stretch Your Eyes

[Verse 1]
The dark and the ghost
They dance so sweet and slow
Dug-out from below there
To damn the gods

[Verse 2]
A grip that will hold
So tight and close
Around my throat with
The weight of all our lives

[Chorus]
You could give to my heart
Thousand words or more
You could give to my heart
Thousand words or more

[Verse 3]
The drum you stroke
Damn that beat so old
In the ground it grows there
To damn the sun
(Oh, what will come to life)

[Verse 4]
The gates of gold
In your head you hold
A kingdom molten
May the gods be on your side

[Chorus]
You could give to my heart
Thousand words or more
You could give to my heart
Thousand words or more
