[Animal Collective - Stride Rite lyrics]
Here once again I lie beside you
Staring through your open heart
Explaining what I'm not
Let's invite all the songs that we wrote so we'd know
And let them go
And she's lying sideways
Peering through the open blouse
Discovering her mother's dying heart
And feels safe in the arms she'd grown old just to know
Then let them go
And this winter's sorrow's hard, I know
But we've been through worse
And back
All in time
Don't hide behind
This love is wide
Just take a stride
Might even have to climb
Lost one to cancer
Two to sorrow
Three by losing patience
With the people who we are
Let us tend what's not grown, nothing's wrong, let it go
I know you know
Ride the rise and fall of love's repeating answer
To the quest of our extraordinary lives
Let us find what we'd know in the fall of the old
Then let it go
Ah, this winter sorrow's hard, I know
But you've been through worse
And back
All in time
Don't hide behind
This love is wide
Just take a stride
Might even have to climb
Above the walls inside
Look to teachings you'll find everywhere
From your lover's eyes
To the loss that makes you cry
Staring through your open heart
Explaining what I'm not
Let's invite all the songs that we wrote so we'd know
And let them go
And she's lying sideways
Peering through the open blouse
Discovering her mother's dying heart
And feels safe in the arms she'd grown old just to know
Then let them go
And this winter's sorrow's hard, I know
But we've been through worse
And back
All in time
Don't hide behind
This love is wide
Just take a stride
Might even have to climb
Lost one to cancer
Two to sorrow
Three by losing patience
With the people who we are
Let us tend what's not grown, nothing's wrong, let it go
I know you know
Ride the rise and fall of love's repeating answer
To the quest of our extraordinary lives
Let us find what we'd know in the fall of the old
Then let it go
Ah, this winter sorrow's hard, I know
But you've been through worse
And back
All in time
Don't hide behind
This love is wide
Just take a stride
Might even have to climb
Above the walls inside
Look to teachings you'll find everywhere
From your lover's eyes
To the loss that makes you cry
