Owen Pallett - Chorale Lyrics
Out from the heavensOne of the SevenComes to collect meWhile I am sleepingHoly enemyLeave me, leave me beI’d be leaving too much behind meUnfinished and unripenedHe is a creature of songIn his hands is a model of the Kingdom of HeavenBut he comes from another worldA world I could not, could never believe inLeads me to the oceanClasps my handShades me from the sunlightWe lay down in the sandOh surrenderI cannot surrenderI can see it but I cannot feel itI can say it but I won’t believe itHe is a creature of songIn his hands is a model of the Kingdom of HeavenBut he comes from another worldA world I could not, could never believe in
