Neko Case - Hex Lyrics

You hear me calling
Your name in the night
Do you run to your window
Thinking a coyote might be howling?

When you hear me knocking
At your door again
Do you tell yourself
It's only the wind that's blowing?

When the sun in the sky
Sinks down in the west
Do you tell yourself
That the heart in your chest
Is still beating?

Will you know
Or must I tell you?
This is my lover's spell
You have fallen into
My dear
My voice is all
You'll hear

Only the sound of my heart pounding
Darling

You took my heart
Cast it aside
Laughed when I cried
Like it was just no big deal
And here all alone in the dark
I know just how you feel

When you feel my fingers
Touch your skin again
Do you tell yourself
There's just no use in crying?

When the stars in the sky
Begin to fade
Do you tell yourself
Don't be afraid
It's just the night that's dying?

Will you know
Or must I tell you?
This is my lover's spell
You have fallen into
My dear
My voice is all
You'll hear
