Johnny Flynn, Robert Macfarlane - Ten Degrees of Strange lyrics
[Johnny Flynn, Robert Macfarlane - Ten Degrees of Strange lyrics]
One, two, three, four!
There's a black dog following hot on my trail
Set firm on hollowing my heart till it fails
Got nine days sleepless
Seeking to keep this dog off my tail
Lugged this old bag of bones
Through seven time zones
Oh, I'm ten degrees of strange
I'm trying to change
Trying to shake off my shadow
Still hoping to get out of
The black dog's range
So I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
Gonna run like a river right down to the sea
Gonna run like the sap through
The heart of a tree
I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
Oh, you were the pebble and I was the ripple
You were the puzzle and I was the riddle
Together, together, got lost in the middle
You took signs from wonders and
Some of the meteors
In winter, the thunder
The trees split asunder wherever we wander
Now I'm stormbound on high ground
A Jack of the hedge
A wreck on the beach still trying to
Stay out of the black dog's reach
Oh, some days I long for the grace of an end
Dam up the river or dry out it's bed
Bury me there, body and head
Far from the black dog's song
Well, I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
And I run like a river right down to the sea
Gonna run like the sap through
The heart of a tree
I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
Gonna run like a river right down to the sea
Gonna run like the sap through
The heart of a tree
I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
There's a black dog following hot on my trail
Set firm on hollowing my heart till it fails
Got nine days sleepless
Seeking to keep this dog off my tail
Lugged this old bag of bones
Through seven time zones
Oh, I'm ten degrees of strange
I'm trying to change
Trying to shake off my shadow
Still hoping to get out of
The black dog's range
So I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
Gonna run like a river right down to the sea
Gonna run like the sap through
The heart of a tree
I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
Oh, you were the pebble and I was the ripple
You were the puzzle and I was the riddle
Together, together, got lost in the middle
You took signs from wonders and
Some of the meteors
In winter, the thunder
The trees split asunder wherever we wander
Now I'm stormbound on high ground
A Jack of the hedge
A wreck on the beach still trying to
Stay out of the black dog's reach
Oh, some days I long for the grace of an end
Dam up the river or dry out it's bed
Bury me there, body and head
Far from the black dog's song
Well, I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
And I run like a river right down to the sea
Gonna run like the sap through
The heart of a tree
I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
Gonna run like a river right down to the sea
Gonna run like the sap through
The heart of a tree
I run 'cause I must leave
That dog in the dust
