Sleeping At Last - Tethered lyrics
[Sleeping At Last - Tethered lyrics]
We were married by the ocean
We were tethered by the sea
We tied string around our fingers
To remember our ideals
I'll be brave when you are frightened
You'll be strong when I am weak in the knees
I'll be calm when you have had
Enough of these rushing waves
You'll be the oxygen I need
We'll take turns to untangle the knots
Though our hands may be tied
It's all a part of the plot
Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige
As we learn to enlace for
The rest of our lives
You'll be balance when I waver
I'll be warmth when you are shivering cold
You'll be patience when I've had
Enough of this waiting game
I'll be the anchor cast below
We'll take turns to untangle the knots
Though our hands may be tied
It's all a part of the plot
Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige
As we learn to enlace for
The rest of our lives
We were tethered by the sea
We tied string around our fingers
To remember our ideals
I'll be brave when you are frightened
You'll be strong when I am weak in the knees
I'll be calm when you have had
Enough of these rushing waves
You'll be the oxygen I need
We'll take turns to untangle the knots
Though our hands may be tied
It's all a part of the plot
Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige
As we learn to enlace for
The rest of our lives
You'll be balance when I waver
I'll be warmth when you are shivering cold
You'll be patience when I've had
Enough of this waiting game
I'll be the anchor cast below
We'll take turns to untangle the knots
Though our hands may be tied
It's all a part of the plot
Cat's cradle etiquette, we oblige
As we learn to enlace for
The rest of our lives
