Mount the Air The Unthanks

I'll mount the air on swallows wings
To find my dearest dear
And if I lose my labour
And cannot find him there
I quickly will become a fish to search the roaring seas
I love my love
Because I know my lover
He loves me

I'll mount the air on swallows wings
To find my dearest dear
And if I lose my labour
And cannot find him there
I quickly will become a fish to search the roaring sea
I love my love
Because I know my lover
He loves me

I'd comb the air and ocean deep
To find my dearest dear
In all my days and empty nights
I cannot find him there
I swiftly will become a deer
And scour the heathered moors
I'll find my love before
The winter falls on these shores
