lyrics

Do you remember
That fateful night
You first heard me and let me into your soul
Into your soul

Well I remember it like
Just like it was yesterday
Although it was
Many hearts and wounds ago

The oldest magic
Your heart trips the magic

And when the sound waves travel
Deep into marrow, conjure me
Follow my voice and I will
Yes I will take you there

I mean it like it was
Just like it sounds, summon me
Scratch the needle, tear the silence
Turn me right round

The oldest magic
Your heart trips the magic
Let me in
Once you hear my voice
I’ll never leave

I am in the foreground
Singing out those veiled words hiding right beneath your skin
(possession)
I am in the background
Mending all those tiny little fractures in your soul
(possession)

I’ll never leave you
I’ll never leave you

And when the isolation
Tries to swallow you, cast a spell
Like a force field to deflect
And shield you from the pain

I am the time machine
To take you back
To the time, to the place
To the heartbeat of it all

The oldest magic
Your heart trips the magic
Let me in
Once you hear my voice
I’ll never leave.
Lean into the whispers
Once you hear my voice
I’m here to stay

I am in the foreground
Singing out those veiled words hiding right beneath your skin
(possession)
I am in the background
Mending all those tiny little fractures in your soul
(possession)

I am in the foreground
Singing out the words your hiding deep beneath your tongue
(possession)
I am in the background
Singing out those tiny little voices in your soul
(possession)

I’ll never leave you
I’ll never leave you
