1         What if this storm ends and I don't see you   [I - What If This Storm Ends?]                          1

42  From here the caravans are kids toys42
  And I can hold them all in my palm  And I can hold them all in my palm
  I watch the sea creep round the corner  I watch the sea creep round the corner
  It connects the dots from here to you  It connects the dots from here to you
29   29
  The sunlight burning through the loose flags  The sunlight burning through the loose flags
  Painted high on white church walls  Painted high on white church walls
  I chase my blood from brain to thumped heart  I chase my blood from brain to thumped heart
  Until I'm out of breath for trying  Until I'm out of breath for trying
      
  Worry not everything is sound  Worry not everything is sound
  This is the safest place you've found  This is the safest place you've found
  The only noise beating out is ours  The only noise beating out is ours
  Lacing our tea from honey jars  Lacing our tea from honey jars
      
  These accidents of faith and nature  These accidents of faith and nature
  They tend to stick in the spokes of you  They tend to stick in the spokes of you
  But every now and then the trend bucks  But every now and then the trend bucks
  And you're repaired by more than glue  And you're repaired by more than glue
      
  Worry not everything is sound  Worry not everything is sound
  This is the safest place you've found  This is the safest place you've found
  The only noise beating out is ours  The only noise beating out is ours
  Lacing our tea from honey jars  Lacing our tea from honey jars
      
3  Why don't you rest your fragile bones?   Why don't you rest your fragile bones 3
  A minute ago you looked alone  A minute ago you looked alone
4  Stop waving your arms, you're safe and dry   Stop waving your arms you're safe and dry 4
  Breathe in and drink up the winter sky  Breathe in and drink up the winter sky
      
43  [III - Daybreak]43
44      44
  Slowly the day breaks apart in our hands  Slowly the day breaks apart in our hands
5  And soft Hallelujahs flow in from the church   And soft hallelujahs flow in from the church 5
  The one on the corner you said frightened you  The one on the corner you said frightened you
6  It was too dark and too large to find your soul in   It was too dark and too large                           6
45  to find your soul in45
      
  Something was bound to go right sometime today  Something was bound to go right sometime today
7  All these broken pieces fit together to make a perfect picture of us   All these broken pieces fit                                                  7
8  It got cold and then dark so suddenly and rained   together to make a perfect                                  8
9  It rained so hard, the two of us were the only thing   picture                              of us                         9
46  It got cold and then dark so46
47  suddenly and rained47
48  It rained so hard the two of48
49  us were the only thing49
  That we could see for miles and miles  That we could see for miles and miles
      
  And in the middle of the flood I felt my worth  And in the middle of the flood I felt my worth
10  When you held onto me like I was your little life raft   When you held onto me like I was                           10
50  your little life raft50
  Please know that you were mine as well  Please know that you were mine as well
11  Drops of water hit the ground like God's own tears   Drops of water hit the ground                          11
12  And spread out into shapes like salad bowls                                          like God's own tears 12
13  And basins and buckets for bailing out the flood         And spread                             out into shapes like 13
51  Salad bowls and basins and buckets51
52  for bailing out the flood52
      
  As motionless cars rust on driveways and curbs  As motionless cars rust on driveways and curbs
14  You take off your raincoat and stretch out your arms   You take off your raincoat and                           14
53  stretch out your arms53
  We both laugh out loud and surrender to it  We both laugh out loud and surrender to it
15  The sheer force of sky and the cold magnet earth   The sheer force of sky and                           15
16                              the cold magnet Earth 16
30  Something was bound to go right sometime today   30
31  All these broken pieces fit together to make a perfect picture of us   31
32  It got cold and then dark so suddenly and rained   32
33  It rained so hard, the two of us were the only thing   33
34  That we could see for miles and miles   34
35   35
36  And in the middle of the flood I felt my worth   36
37  When you held onto me like I was your little life raft   37
38  Please know that you were mine as well   38
39  Drops of water hit the ground like God's own tears   39
40  And spread out into shapes like salad bowls   40
41  And basins and buckets for bailing out the flood   41
