Palm Lines Songtext
von Lowland Hum

Walking through cold, tall grass
You held out your hand like a teacup turned skyward
Palm lines mirrored the rise and fall of the land
We imagined ourselves tiny in your hand
Climbing the terrain of your soft skin
Meanwhile, carried forward safely within


One foot in front of the other, my darling
Lift up your face so the sun can shine on it
Frailty is a friend who makes you sleep 'til the morning
The mountain is high but it's floating on the ocean

Weariness hitchhiker was our guest all year
Let me look into your palm again!
If I lose my sight, will the shadow draw me in?

One foot in front of the other, my darling
Lift up your face so the sun can shine on it
Frailty is a friend who makes you sleep until the morning
The valley is dry but a steady rain is coming

One foot in front of the other, my darling
