Lyrics Great Lake Swimmers

Great Lake Swimmers

The Great Exhale

Look at the names carved into us

Look at the days when they were lit up

Brushing my head and I feel their rage

Years of radiance, years of rain

And the world stops spinnin’ when you stop spinnin’

Sighs when you sigh when you sigh

I’m coming home so leave the light on for me

I’m drawing over the moon on this fell

When I’ll get in I will see you all there

I’m drawing on the great exhale

Certain grounds are water more likely

Translating names of lost families

Somebody’s sleeping and you should not wake

Drifting whispers over their grave

And the world stops spinnin’ when you stop spinnin’

Sighs when you sigh when you sigh

I’m coming home so leave the light on for me

I’m drawing over the moon on this fell

When I’ll get in I will see you all there

I’m drawing on the great exhale

Wide and open spaces

In a sleep along with time

Come to waiting places

Come tonight like all the dreams

I’m coming home so leave the light on for me

I’m drawing over the moon on this fell

When I’ll get in I will see you all there

I’m drawing on the great exhale

I’m soling in on the great exhale
