Lyrics:

And if you follow me son

The wind'll wrap around you

Carry from the ground

You will never be alone

Your weight will turn to sunlight

That's falling on a girl

Who's still inside the world

She's reading books from empty women

They're giving beauty tips from empty hips

And how is the water of the rain

And how is the air of the wind

And how are the arms of your mother

She's holding you in

Watch them as they try to fly their kites inside their bedrooms

That were only built for drinking

Your thoughts they never lasted long when you were under the sky

Above it you can hold a thought forever

And how is the water of the rain

And how is the air of the wind

And how are the arms of your mother

She's holding you in

And how is the water of the rain

And how is the air of the wind

And how are the arms of your mother

She's holding you in

Good song. Really love the National. It's funny to see the band members this young. The video itself could be a little more inspired though, it kind of looks like it was made in the middle of the nineties or something. :P
