If By Morning |
My bell tower’s ringing but it isn’t you singing |
We don’t know that song anymore |
And winter bones breaking if it ain’t shook it’s shaking |
This tangle of fate outside my door |
Oh threadbare in peril this cold christmas carol |
We jump from the bridge in our mind |
It’s one for the money, at two you go hungry |
My blue shoes are draggin the line |
Leave a lantern, on the trail |
I’m not asking for much just your meadowsweet touch |
If by morning you’re ready to sail |
Don’t wait for so long cause you know that I’m gone |
You can lock up your treasure and take drastic measures |
We march toward the grave all the same |
It’s a short life of trouble your church turns to rubble |
And beauty has never had a name |
Well my head’s in your branches, I squandered my chances |
I’ve given the last I can give |
This empire’s falling the pace is appalling |
How can a poor man stand such time and live |
So leave a lantern on the trail |
I’m not asking for much just your meadowsweet touch |
If by morning you’re ready to sail |
Don’t wait for so long cause you know that I’m gone |
