Daphne Lyrics
12, 11, 10, 9
And so, in my house I've built a shrine
8, 7, 6, 5
But I have dreamt he's still alive
4, 3, 2, 1
In the lands of light his voice is sung
Row row row row
The time is right for us to go
Bloom the night in all her darkness
Daphne froze in her white night gown
Cotton be around your body
The sea is calling me down
The sea is calling me down
Bloom the night in all her darkness
Daphne froze on the glass abyss
Years of tears had salt her body
And she cried nevermore
And she cried nevermore
1, 2, 3, 4
For you, my love, I'll wait no more
5, 6, 7, 8
Lay your kisses to rest at the garden gates
9, 10, 11, 12
Because I've got to save myself
Row, row, row, row
The time is right for you to go
And so, in my house I've built a shrine
8, 7, 6, 5
But I have dreamt he's still alive
4, 3, 2, 1
In the lands of light his voice is sung
The time is right for us to go
Daphne froze in her white night gown
Cotton be around your body
The sea is calling me down
The sea is calling me down
Daphne froze on the glass abyss
Years of tears had salt her body
And she cried nevermore
And she cried nevermore
For you, my love, I'll wait no more
5, 6, 7, 8
Lay your kisses to rest at the garden gates
9, 10, 11, 12
Because I've got to save myself
The time is right for you to go

During a Q&A session in New York, Natasha said it is about "my grandmother and her relationship with my grandad and when he went to war. It's actually a quite haunting, dark song but I like it."
