Animal Games - The Colorist Orchestra, Emiliana Torrini

Your heart is like a dawn

You shape it how you want

I can’t stop thinking of

How that makes me want you at all

Now you’re playing all these games

That I don’t know how to play

Now you say you love me

But next you’re going away

So I find new love

Cause that is what I do

Now you’re scaring of the dawn

Killing off the sparrow

Howling like a wolf

Poisoning the arrow

You shake the rope I’m walking

Just to catch me when I fall

Turn while I’m still talking

Next time I’ll be gone

A red kiss and a letter

That is all you’ll find

Now you’re scaring of the dawn

Killing off the sparrow

Howling like a wolf

Poisoning the arrow

Now you’re creeping in the reeds

Spying like an eagle

Fighting like a rooster

Blood is in the water

Now I’m playing all these games

I’m getting better and better

I’m getting better and better

Yeah, I’m getting better and better

So I find new love

Cause that is what I do
