white bird falling/ johnny's tune - west of roan lyrics

Loading...

dark birds rise from the marsh
loud and low across the sky
down below the wheat’s still standing
moved once with a breath*like wind

i have seen a white bird falling
i have seen your spreading hands
i have seen this boy a*praying
for the bird to take his hand

in his sleep he dreams of daylight
of the field beneath the crow
as he folds his hands together
he sees his long shadow go

when i wake, my womb is empty
and i shall not hold my breath
my own babe is foreign sorrow
no name to call him by

shadows move from the marsh
move into the fading day
my own boy is going with them
and the birds take his breath as wind

i have seen a white bird falling
i have seen your spreading hands
i have seen this boy a*praying
for the bird to take his hand
i have seen a white bird falling
i have seen your spreading hands
i have seen this boy a*praying
for the bird to take his hand
