Name: Canyon
Duration: P00H04M32S
Description: Based off memories of exploring arid landscapes and communicating with animals, combined with the trepidation of getting involved physically with someone you don't know well enough.

lyrics

I wanna go to that canyon late at night
I wanna know what you look like in the moonlight
Wanderin river and we follow it dowwwwwn

Old wise woman says be careful with your body
Old wise woman say there be bridges burnin’ under water

I want to go but i shouldnt so
i won’t go but i want to so

Follow me to that rocky height
Wrap ourselves in the hum of night.
Place our palm where the bobcat walked
Through my heart I can hear him talk.

I wanna go to that canyon late at night
I wanna know what you feel like drenched in moonlight
Wanderin hands and we tumble to the ground
wanderin river flowing underground

ooo ahhh

old wise woman says be careful with your body
old wise woman says there be bridges burning underwater
