Meet The Light Child - Animal Collective

Hey, girl

This leaf I brought for you was ordinary

Girl I yell jump in

We’ll set for sailing

Goodbye, oceans

Hey, girl

I brought your records here to make sweet music in our garden

The smallest chorus would applaud you

Tiptoe away so you don’t hear me

I’m pearl white

Can’t you come inside with me?

Hey, girl

Here’s an ancient jigsaw puzzle

With dragons and mountains

And two fish are now near a river

Hey, girl

Lastly is your lover’s picture

I knew that you’d want to see him

He told me that you are golden

I brought the lunch so I might eat with you

I sent milk with cookies

When I find metal from the sky

Came falling where I died

And crushed all of my bones

I’m living

Cement came pouring down

My head was stuck in mounds that

Would run down my mouth

Well, my face is covered now

I’m okay with a stranger

They tricked me

And I thought I was leaving

Through my window

Now wake up!

They’re telling me now

Let it go

Come on

Play
