Ten Mile Stilts - The Wailin Jennys

[00:00.0]Ten Mile Stilts - The Wailin Jennys
[00:27.47]Imagine you're a girl on ten mile stilts
[00:38.67]You travel round the world taking it all in
[00:49.76]You'll never touch the ground
[00:55.22]Is it a blessing or a curse
[01:00.9]And if you're too are to be found
[01:03.78]Are you lost or just rehearsed
[01:09.32]Got a heart that opens clear in this cool September dark
[01:20.87]It rests on treetop leaves
[01:26.51]And bursts it's little sparks
[01:32.21]And sometimes it sings it's songs
[01:37.880005]And it lets it's secrets out
[01:43.770004]Except for one that sears inside
[01:49.17]That it cannot live without
[01:54.71]But if I tell you will you take it
[02:00.46]Will you shine it up to me
[02:06.09]Can you be strong to let me go on
[02:10.54]And set this freedom free
[02:17.73]And set this freedom free
[02:49.0]The stars are out tonight
[02:54.75]Up here they're ripe to hold
[03:00.58]I learned what comes to those who get too close
[03:11.22]I'm no Icarus in flight
[03:16.95]And I'm old enough to know
[03:22.53]That love is patient but still unyielding
[03:26.87]If you leave it long enough it lets you go
[03:33.89]But if I tell you wil you take it
[03:39.62]Will you shine it up to me
[03:45.13]Can you be strong to let me go on
[03:49.68]And set this freedom free
[03:56.95]And set this freedom free
[04:02.43]And set this freedom free
