Wandering Limbs Lyrics

[Verse 1: Kimbra]
I'm gonna dangle my feet over the wire
Despite your despair, I'm going over to the other side
There's a break in the clouds where the crimson collects
Anticipate my demise, the world's different from up here

[Chorus: Sam Lawrence, Kimbra, Both]
Am I caught in the background, or part of the scene?
Misery in the comedown, when I come down from here
Are we tangled in each other or placed in between?
Like a stone or a stones throw away from falling
Am I just sketch in the landscape or arranged close to you?
(Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah)
I think I fell into a strange fate with wandering limbs
And eager hands

[Verse 2: Kimbra, Sam Lawrence]
Now the sun's gone to lay, I can lust towards space
(Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah)
I'll transcend into blues, fade out from the ground greys
I feel so beautiful, kept me out from the crowd cries
I got the birds eye view, (Birds eye view) now we're all just dots in a sky

[Chorus: Kimbra, Sam Lawrence, Both]
Am I caught in the background, or part of the scene?
Misery in the comedown, when I come down from here
Are we tangled in each other or placed in between?
Like a stone or a stones throw away from falling
Am I just sketch in the landscape or arranged close to you?
(Ah, ah-ah, ah, ah-ah)
I think I fell, think I fell into a strange fate with wandering limbs
And eager hands
[Outro: Kimbra, Both Riffing Vocally in Background]
Eager hands
Eager hands
(Ah Ah Ah Ah...)

How to Format Lyrics:

  • Type out all lyrics, even repeating song parts like the chorus
  • Lyrics should be broken down into individual lines
  • Use section headers above different song parts like [Verse], [Chorus], etc.
  • Use italics (<i>lyric</i>) and bold (<b>lyric</b>) to distinguish between different vocalists in the same song part
  • If you don’t understand a lyric, use [?]
