LA CANZONE DEL GIORNO: HEARTLINES/FLORENCE AND THE MACHINE





Oh, the river
Oh, the river it’s running free
Oh the joy
Oh the joy it brings to me
But I know it’ll have to drown me
Before it can breathe easy
And I’ve seen it in the flights of birds
I’ve seen it in you
The entrails of the animals
The blood running through
But in order to get to the heart
I think sometimes you'll have to cut through
But you can’t

(We will carry)
(We will carry you there)

Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Keep it up
I know you can
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
'Cause I am

On the sea
On the sea and land over land
Creeping and crawling like the sea over sand
Still I follow heartlines on your head
And this fantasy, this fallacy, this tumbling stone
Echoes of a city that’s long overgrown
Your heart is the only place that I call home
Can I be returned?

You can
(We will carry)
We can
(We will carry you there)
I know you can

Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Keep it up
I know you can
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head

What a thing to do
What a thing to choose
But know, in some way I’m there with you
Up against the wall on a wednesday afternoon

Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
Keep it up
I know you can
Just keep following
The heartlines on your head
'Cause I am
