Lyrics
[verse]
I felt you before I ever caught your eye
Like a current pulling underneath the sky
Bent a little closer every time you'd speak
Rooted where you wandered, never far, never weak
[verse]
You showed up like weather I didn't see coming
Quiet as a candle, steady as a drumming
I followed the sound of you through the dark
Traced the shape of maybe, chased a single spark
[chorus]
Bend for me the way the branches sway
Lead me where the wild things play
I'll follow your shadow through the fog and haze
Tangled up in you like ivy in a maze
Pull me closer, let the moonlight in
This is how the quiet stories begin
[verse]
Every path we walked was tangled up in mist
You'd vanish for a moment, then I'd feel your wrist
Pulling me through thickets nobody else could find
A secret kind of gravity, a rare and gentle kind
[chorus]
Bend for me the way the branches sway
Lead me where the wild things play
I'll follow your shadow through the fog and haze
Tangled up in you like ivy in a maze
Pull me closer, let the moonlight in
This is how the quiet stories begin
[bridge]
Say the word and I'll come running
Through the fields where the light keeps thinning
No map, no compass, just the pull of you
Bending toward the only thing that's true
[chorus]
Bend for me the way the branches sway
Lead me where the wild things play
I'll follow your shadow through the fog and haze
Tangled up in you like ivy in a maze
Pull me closer, let the moonlight in
This is how the quiet stories begin
