Four Winds Red Shoes

Still my hands, they won't stop  shaking, reaching out 
Further than the flesh will go 
Catch my breath it can't catch up with me  I'm too far beyond it 
I'm running with the hurricane that I contain  these winds that blow   

Over hill over dale over forest in flight 
Under sun under moon in the dark and the light 
Through the pulse through the skin to the edge of the knife 
Through the hours and the days all the time of my life 

 I am four winds and two  
Burning up in these red shoes 
Dancing til my feet turn blue
 Trapped in these red shoes for you 

Stretch my skin it can't keep in the forces beating beneath it
 I cannot rest - I cannot sleep 
A creature with wings I am a  herald of stranger things 
I am transforming - taking to flight 
Like seven sisters, up into the night 
Bearing a light   

Through the halls through the town down the glittering streets 
Through the walls through the keys down the wires beneath 
On the stage on the page there's nowhere left to hide
 I'm dancing dancing dancing   

 I am four winds and two  
Burning up in these red shoes 
Torn apart and pushing through 
Trapped in these red shoes for you   

I am for you in these red shoes

 I am for you
