The Scarlet Thing In You Lyrics
From the world to the dreaming fields of light
Yeah from the soaking mud
Gonna fly up to the sky
To the scarlet thing in you
On a long lost ocean wave of light
Submerged and unafraid
I saw you
You were one
I saw you
You were one
No way back to recall the way
Cause I threw out all the why's
Spinning with the spider in the cave
Found the scarlet thing in you
Where the birds can't reach
No words can teach
Spinning in the cave
For the scarlet thing in you
I saw you, you saw me
I saw you
You were one
I saw you
You were one
Spinning in the cave
For the scarlet thing in you
Yeah from the soaking mud
Gonna fly up to the sky
To the scarlet thing in you
On a long lost ocean wave of light
Submerged and unafraid
You were one
I saw you
You were one
Cause I threw out all the why's
Spinning with the spider in the cave
Found the scarlet thing in you
Where the birds can't reach
No words can teach
Spinning in the cave
For the scarlet thing in you
You were one
I saw you
You were one
For the scarlet thing in you

"The Scarlet Thing In You"
From the world to the dreaming fields of light Yeah from the soaking mud Gonna fly up to the sky To the scarlet thing in you, On the red wings I was sailin' at night To the scarlet thing in you On a long lost ocean wave of light Submerged and unafraid.
I saw you, (I saw you) You were one {I saw you!} You were one, I saw you, (I saw you) You were one {I saw you!} You were one.
No way back to recall the way 'Cause I threw out all the why's Spinning with the spider in the cave Found the scarlet thing in you, Where the birds can't reach No words can teach Spinning in the cave For the scarlet thing in you.
I saw you, You saw me!
I saw you, (I saw you) You were one {I saw you!} You were one, I saw you, (I saw you) You were one {I saw you!} You were one.
(Everything's alright Everything's alright Everything's alright Everything's alright).
Spinning in the cave For the scarlet thing in you, Spinning in the cave For the scarlet thing in you, Spinning in the cave For the scarlet thing in you, Spinning in the cave For the scarlet thing in you...
