Flight Paths

[Verse 1]
When your orbit swung in close
And words became knots
When they broke loose in a flood

[Chorus]
I was with you then
I am with you now

[Verse 2]
When the pack escaped
From that deep place
The horizon a blur
Of colour and fur

[Verse 3]
And legs moved on
Carried on beyond
The bridges reached
Under ceilings so low you had to crawl

[Chorus]
I was with you then
I am with you now

[Verse 4]
Refracted light
Glance from your cuts
From your better sides
Your orbit swung out wide

[Verse 5]
Before it returned
And daylight congealed
Dances danced
Hands won and lost

[Chorus]
I was with you then
I am with you now

[Verse 6]
When the nets came in
And the map was changed
And the targets moved
And the language lost

[Chorus]
I was with you then
I am with you now
I was with you then
I am with you now
