lyrics

we got a thing made of magic and we’re movin’ onwards
oh, how you make me want to use strong words
so I’m calling you up; gather your things dear
make your way over; we’ll see what the new year brings

‘cause you baptise me, oh my god!
we’re driving south
dip me in water
put words in my mouth
am I grown older?
or grown younger?
we’ll see with the summer
that you still surprise me, oh my god!
we’re driving west
you terrify me, tighten up my chest

am I grown older?
is this getting dangerous?
‘cause you are contagious
but you civilize me, oh my god!
we’re driving north
dip me in waters, soothe me with your voice

oh, how you make me want to use strong words
