First Aid Kit - Wolf lyrics

rate me

Wolf-mother, where you been?

You look so worn, so thin

You're a taker, devils-maker (?)

Let me hear you sing, hey-ya hey-ya

Wolf-father, at the door

You don't smile anymore

You're a drifter, shape-shifter

Let me see you run, hey-ya hey-ya

Holy light over the night

Oh, keep the spirit strong

Watch it grow, child of war

Oh, keep holdin' on

When I run through the deep dark forest long

After this begun

Where the sun would set,

The trees were dead,

And the rivers were none.

And I hope for a trace

To lead me back home from this place

But there was no sound there was only me, and my disgrace

(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey) x2

Wolf-mother, where you been?

You look so worn, so thin

You're a taker, devils-maker (?)

Let me hear you sing, hey-ya hey-ya

Wolf-father, at the door

You don't smile anymore

You're a drifter, shape-shifter

Let me see you run, hey-ya hey-ya

Wayward winds, a voice that sings

Of a forgotten land

See it fall, child of war

Oh, lend a mending hand

When I run through the deep dark forest long

After this begun

Where the sun would set,

The trees were dead,

And the rivers were none.

And I hope for a trace

To lead me back home from this place

But there was no sound there was only me, and my disgrace

(Hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey, hey) x2
