Beth Orton - Skimming Stones Lyrics

Artist: Beth Orton

Album: Best Bit Ep

Genre: Folk

  • Songwriters: Ted Barnes, Will Blanchard, Henry Olsen, Beth Orton, Sean Read

You've been tryin' to find the line
To define the strength in weak hands
Read the first page then guess the rest
And don't always know what's best

You've been tryin' to swim up
The sun's burning reflection
And tryin' to skim a boulder
In the very same direction

Where it goes, no one knows
No one follows, where it goes
No one knows, no one follows

I'll be a flame burning in the darkness
And I will light what's in your heart
I'll be a flame in the dark
But I can't light what's not in your heart

I can lie, I can lie, I can lie, I can lie
You can lie, you can lie, you can lie
