Lyrics Ode To Fire - Jealous Of The Birds

Ode To Fire

Ride the 28 up through Old Town
Cherry trees cast their blossoms down
I should want for nothing at all
But dogs of longing come when I call
Here again, this grit in my eye
Stagnant pool all covered with flies
See the woman dressed up in white
Cast her sickle into the night
What is rest?
What is rest?
If I cannot sleep next to you?
What is warmth?
What is truth?
If I can’t have an effect on you?
What is rest?
What is rest?
If I cannot sleep next to you?
What is warmth?
What is truth?
If I can’t have an effect on you?
Charcoal sketches and lemongrass tea
Paper boats I carried to sea
Memory folds itself on desire
I am ice but married to fire
What is rest?
What is rest?
If I cannot sleep next to you?
What is warmth?
What is truth?
If I can’t have an effect on you?
What is rest?
What is rest?
If I cannot sleep next to you?
What is warmth?
What is truth?
If I can’t have an effect on you?
What is rest?
What is rest?
If I cannot sleep next to you?
What is warmth?
What is truth?
If I can’t have an effect on you?
What is rest?
What is rest?
If I cannot sleep next to you?
What is warmth?
What is truth?
If I can’t have an effect on you?
