Big Thief - Seam

To Rate
This whole world is dying
Don’t it seem like a good time for swimming?
Before all the water disappears

Ever since the day we met
I loved you and I don’t regret
The way we passed the time
Drinking coffee, drinking wine
Oh, my heart has holes in it
And there you were exposing it
How I would lose my mind
To get lost only to find

This whole world is dying
Don’t it seem like a good time for swimming?
Before all the water disappears

You came in like some good things do
Out of nowhere, dream come true
And showed me things I never knew
What it means to walk that line
And like a moth into the sun
I flew in front of everyone
And burned up in the flame
Now it’s pouring acid rain
This whole world is dying
Don’t it seem like a good time for swimming?
Before all the water disappears

Now our love is dying
Don’t it seem like a good time for kissing?
One more kiss, one more kiss to last the years
