Lyrics

Atom Dance

[Intro: Björk] We are each other's hemispheres [Verse 1: Björk] I am fine tuning my soul To the universal wavelength No one is a lover alone I propose an atom dance [Verse 2: Björk] Our hearts are coral reefs in low tide Love is the ocean we crave Restlessly turning around and around I am dancing towards transformation Learning by love to open it up Let this ugly wound breathe We fear unconditional heart space Healed by atom dance [Refrain: Björk] When you feel the flow as primal love Enter the pain and dance with me We are each other's hemispheres [Verse 3: Björk & Anohni] We aim at peeling off Dead layers of loveless love No one is a lover alone Most hearts fear their own home Most hearts, they fear their own home Becoming themselves fully It scares them off [Refrain: Björk] When you feel the flow as primal love Enter the pain and dance with me [Chorus: Anohni] No one is a lover alone, lone Most hearts fear their own home You are my second hemisphere, hemisphere The atoms are dancing, dancing [Chorus: Björk & Anohni] No one is a lover alone, lone Most hearts fear their own home You are my second hemisphere, hemisphere The atoms are dancing, dancing [Interlude: Björk] Atoms are laughing at last Atoms are laughing at last At last, at last Atoms are... [Chorus: Björk & Anohni] No one is a lover alone No one is a lover alone, lone Most hearts fear their own home You are my second hemisphere, hemisphere The atoms are dancing, dancing
