"NATIVE TONGUE" Lyrics:



Sing to me, baby, in your native tongue

Sing the words of the wise and the young

Show me the place where your words come from

Love is the language, love is your native tongue



Feel your heartbeat bang the drum

Open up your eyes and fill your lungs

The same word from where the stars are flung

Love is the language, love is your native tongue



My heart is a beating drum

My head in oblivion

My soul, such a long way from

My lips, my lungs, my native tongue



My friend, where did we go wrong?

My Lord, we forgot our sound

My soul, such a long way from

My lips, my lungs, my native tongue



Sing it to me, whisper into my ear

Accuser's voices start to disappear

In the wind, in the tongues of the flame

In my soul, in my one true name, oh



Back before we learned the words to start a fight

Back before they told us that the haters were right

He spoke the truth, "let there be" and there was

Love is the language, love is your native tongue



My heart is a beating drum

My head in oblivion

My soul, such a long way from

My lips, my lungs, my native tongue



My friend, where did we go wrong?

My Lord, we forgot our sound

My soul, such a long way from

My lips, my lungs, my native tongue



So sing it loud, get loud, get

Louder than the voices in the crowd, yeah

Even when they tried to drown you out, eh

Your lips, your lungs, your native tongue



So sing it out, get loud, get

Louder than the darkness and the doubts, eh

Louder than the curses and the shouts, yeah

Your lips, your lungs, your native tongue



My heart is a beating drum

My head in oblivion

My soul, such a long way from

My lips, my lungs, my native tongue



My friend, where did we go wrong?

My Lord, we forgot our sound

My soul, such a long way from

My lips, my lungs, my native tongue



I want the world to sing in her native tongue

To sing it like when we were young

Back before the pendulum had swung to the shadows



I want the world to sing in her native tongue

Maybe we could learn to sing along

To find a way to use our lungs for love and not the shadows



I want the world to sing in her native tongue

To sing it like when we were young

Back before the pendulum had swung to the shadows



I want the world to sing in her native tongue

Maybe we could learn to sing along

To find a way to use our lungs for love and not the shadows
