Over the hill I will be waiting on for you. I won’t pretend that you don’t mean nothing to me. Come now, come now. Come back now, come back now…
-Agnes Obel, Over The Hill
The doubt will creep and crawl in on you. The dark can leap and fall upon you. Come back now, come back now…
-Agnes Obel, Over The Hill
Nothing lost and nothing gained. Still things aren’t quite the same between you and me.
-Agnes Obel, Close Watch
I keep a close watch on this heart of mine.
-Agnes Obel, Close Watch
I still hear your voice at night when I turn out the light and try to settle down. But there’s nothing I can do ’cause I can’t live without you any way at all.
-Agnes Obel, Close Watch
Oh I’m sure, no harm will come to you no more ’cause I find myself in your hands. Don’t you be so hard on yourself.
-Agnes Obel, Close Watch
I’m alright here in your arms, darling.
-Agnes Obel, Run Cried The Crawling
What is wrong at the end of the day? What is really wrong no one dares to say. You know you’re wrong when there’s only one right. But what is wrong when right is out of sight?
-Agnes Obel, Avenue
Oh, my, one rushing away with a bag full of bones. I know the place you left. Still won’t leave you alone.
-Agnes Obel, Smoke & Mirrors
Oh, how the birds forget to sing. Do they know where I have been?
-Agnes Obel, Stone
Oh, how the hills were laughing, how the creeks they cried, how the grass would cheer on as we passed them by.
-Agnes Obel, Pass Them By
And our love is a ghost that the others can’t see.
-Agnes Obel, Familiar
Who are you to take over my mind with your eyes on me. All for you I am climbing the sky of golden green.
-Agnes Obel, Golden Green
