Fable Songtext
von Paper Aeroplanes

Lead me down to the water
Throw your voice to the sea
I′ll keep one eye on the future
I'll keep one hand on your sleeve
We are many years from forgetting
We are anything now but complete
So come wade on into the water
Feel the frostbite at your feet
Because you might be unable
And I might be unkind
But there′s truth in this fable
We cannot hide
Walk with me on the mountains
I like my head in the clouds
Make me love you unlike any other
Make me fearless and proud


Because I might be unable
And you might be unkind
But there's truth in this fable
There's a fairytale to find
So surrender your armour
Throw your guard to the sea
Throw my arms ′round your shoulders
And carry me
Because you might be unable
And I might be unkind
But there′s truth in this fable
There's a fairytale inside
So surrender your armour
Throw your guard to the sea
Throw my arms ′round your shoulders
And carry me
