Send "Teardrop" Ringtone to Cell

Love, love is a verb
Love is a doing word
Fearless on my breath

Gentle impulsion
Shakes me, makes me lighter
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on a fire
Fearless on my breath

Water is my eye
Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Of a confession
Fearless on my breath

Most faithful mirror
Fearless on my breath

Teardrop on the fire
Fearless on my breath

You're stumbling in the dark
Stumbling in the dark

Send "Teardrop" Ringtone to Cell

    General Comment:What's the correct lyric? On this it says 'fearless on my breath', yet on the Massive Attack page, it says 'feathers on my breath'!
    Aaaarghhh!
    Nonetheless, love the track, it's stunning...
    Listen to his explanation of why he chose it to cover (and also how he breaks down the song into it's 4 components...brilliant !!!: youtube.com/…)

    General Comment:This is exactly how to do a cover version- take a song, completely revamp it and make it your own. No one should even attempt this song, but Faulkner does it brilliantly.
