One Line

by Polly Jean Harvey

from Album: Stories From The City Stories From The Sea

Do you remember the first kiss?
Star shooting across the sky
To come to such a place as this
You never left my mind

I'm watching from the wall
As, in the streets, we fight
This world all gone to war
All i need is you tonight

And i draw a line
To your heart today
To your heart from mine
A line to keep us safe

All through the rising sun
All through the circling years
You were the only one
Who could have brought me here

And i draw a line
To your heart today
To your heart from mine
One line to keep us safe

And i draw a line
To your heart today
To your heart from mine
And pray to keep us safe

Watch the stars now moving
'cross the sky
Keep this feeling
Safe tonight
