Though I remember when we grew up together
The needles have taken the fire
Every home we walk into was free
You took the handle off from the woman's shelter
Replaced with a line to the sea
In time the tide reveals so quietly
You've been working to put my lover out of a job
In time you will know you were lost, but never alone
You've been working to put my lover out of a job
You know the cost and the place for a house, but never a home
From the needles and fire
From the needles and fire
The needles and fire
My house was built on a row of mirrors
You bed laid out in the field
We climbed up on the rooftop to see
To view is not to learn, you said
We knew that you were to be
The richest apple in the whistling tree
From the needles and fire
The needles and fire
Never sure I'm true
Never sure I'm through
Never sure I'm true
Never sure I'm through
The needles and fire
The needles and fire
