Lyrics Beach House

Beach House

Turtle Island

Down the hill I hoped that I'd find

Something I could rest my hands on

In the distant sun is setting

Deer are jumping over hedges

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island

I will wait for you there, creeping

Silently, I can't keep you

Right behind me

All my days in the sun...

In the waters, trace her features,

Did they scare you, hardened creatures

In that murky, green perfection

Did they warn you of dissection...

How? What, why, when...?

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island

I will wait for you there, creeping

Silently, I can't keep you

Right behind me

All my days in the sun...

How I want Olive to know,

That inside me she'll always grow.

In all colors and prizes

You will always

Remain

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island

By the dock of the pond Turtle Island

I can't keep you

Right behind me

All my days in the sun...
