Lyrics

Foundling

At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds
At the feet of love, yeah
At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds
At the feet of love, yeah

Take me to the limit of every minute
Dancer in the senate of needing and wanting
Throw me in cold, yeah, all that my heart can hold
Until finally confronting

Strictly on a need to know
Letting it go now, baby
Till the time is right

At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds
At the feet of love, yeah
At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds
At the feet of love, yeah

Take me home
Take me home

Every apparition and every dream
That threatened to
But never was actual, solid
Every high cause, yeah
Every phoney Santa Claus
Who wrote his name on it

Strictly on a need to know
Letting it go now
Baby, till the time is right

At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds
At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds
At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds
At the feet of love, a foundling in the reeds

Take me home
Take me home

The sugar and the bile
You try your best to reconcile your heart with its shadow
There she blows all bones and stones and blooming pale
As death in the meadow

We just got to let it go now, baby
Till the time is right

At the feet of love, oh, yeah
Sweet transcendent love, yeah
Exponential love, oh yeah
Luminescent love, yeah

Feast your heart on love, sweet love
Sweet transcendent love, oh yeah
Undefeated love, sweet love
Sweet transcendent love, yeah, yeah
