Sparrow |
| When the evening like a sparrow |
| Folds down under its small wings |
| All the light bones and the feathers of the day |
| Only then in that moment |
| Stop the rushing and just hold me |
| Lay your hands where it hurts |
| And we’ll leave it that way |
| Well, I have often dreamt of angels |
| But I very rarely see them |
| But I know that they’ve been there |
| Because something smells like sky |
| In the rustle of their presence |
| It’s a lot like your breathing |
| Sounds a lot like a promise |
| But I can’t say why |
| I have searched all the wise and the unwise places |
| I have known the price of passion |
| And what solitude buys |
| It was you I was looking for in all those faces |
| Always you I was hoping for |
| When I closed my eyes |
| So I will gather all the feathers |
| That collect up in the corners |
| All the risings and the fallings |
| In the quiet of the day |
| When you speak, there’s a flutter |
| Of some winged thing stirring |
| Lay your head on my heart |
| And we’ll leave it that way |
