"Liverpool Tide" lyrics - PJ HARVEY

This Liverpool tide comforts my eyes
Stings like salty tears I've cried
In summer's glow I found a hope
And another love to come and go

And oh you never never know

And then the snow began to fall
Like (birds it was?) against the wall
And then the sky began to crack
Like sticks (it was?) upon my back

And oh you never never know
When (love will come or go?)

Shipwrecks above Liverpool's tide
We walk alone against the sky
And when the sky begins to crack
Please hold me love, don't break my back

But oh you never never know
When love (will come or go?)
And oh you never never know
