Rope Bridge Crossing

PJ Harvey

And I remember everything

Sunrise on a blue horizon

You, your hand in mine

I remember the things you said



Said, "I'll be a lady, wait through it all,

Be there to catch you, after the fall

Run through the red light, out of my hair

Run from the darkness into the dare



And I dream of running

And in the dream I, myself could run

And I feel the ground beneath my feet

And I move like music,

You move me, like music



Head out of my way

Head out to red light

"Hold on" the dream says

Head out of my life

You said "I'd be there"



Now I'm treading very carefully

And I hope that I don't scream

And I hope that I don't fall

Off your bridge, crossing over

Sunny mountain, swollen riverfall



You said "I'd be there"

You said "I'd be there"

Through it all



Head out of my way

Head of to red light

"Hold on" the dream says

Head out of my life



All over my way

Head out to red light

"Hold on" the dream says

Head out of my life

You said "I'd be there"
