♫ Verse 1:
Dm7
A joy, hard learned in winter was the warming of the bed
G C
You'd shake for minutes there and move your legs
E
Wrap the blanket over you and keep your head within
F
Let your breath heat the air until you’d feel it getting thin
♫ Chorus:
Dm7
'Uiscefhuaraithe'
G F C
The feel of coldness only water brings
E
There are some things that no one teaches you, love
Am Gm7 F
That come natural as a dream you didn’t know that you were in
♫ Post-Chorus:
C
And darlin', all my dreamin' is only put to shame
Em F Fm Am E Am G/B C
And darlin', all my dreamin' has only been given a name,
Dm7
But it came easy, darlin'
G F C
As natural as another leg around you in the bed frame
♫ Verse 2:
Dm7
In summer's heat, I learned to dread the comin' of the night
G C
The awful things we do to make the head go quiet
E
You’d press your body to the concrete when you were small
F
The rains of winter seemed to never leave the walls
♫ Chorus:
Dm7
'Uiscefhuaraithe'
G F C
The feel of coldness only water brings
E
There are some things that no one teaches you, love
Am Gm7 F
That God in his awful wisdom first programs in
♫ Post-Chorus:
C
And darlin', all my dreamin' is only put to shame
Em F Fm Am E Am G/B C
And darlin', all my dreamin' has only been given a name,
Dm7
But it came easy, darlin'
G E
As natural as another leg around you in the bed
♫ Bridge:
And I wish I could say
F
That the river of my arms have found the ocean
G Am Em C
I wish I could say the cold lake water of my heart
Dm7 Em F
Christ, it's boilin' over
♫ Outro:
Em Dm7
But it happened easy, darlin'
G F C
Natural as another leg around you in the bed frame Published:
