Lyrics
Black Wing
Black Wing
I saw a black feather stuck in the dry
Black slick shining, holding flag-like
A sorrow so sudden for lost things
Walking on forgotten feet
My eyes look skyward at the cloud shift
Shaped by the wind so sure of itself
Black slick shining, holding flag-like
A sorrow so sudden for lost things
Walking on forgotten feet
My eyes look skyward at the cloud shift
Shaped by the wind so sure of itself
Ch
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen a long way down
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen the long way round
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen a long way down
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen the long way round
That lone feather torpedoed to ground
Shrugged off, shed, prised away – earth bound
Impaling the summer dry
And of all the things in my hands that I’m holding
The one thing I can’t find is my black wing
shrugged off, hiding
Shrugged off, shed, prised away – earth bound
Impaling the summer dry
And of all the things in my hands that I’m holding
The one thing I can’t find is my black wing
shrugged off, hiding
Ch
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen a long way down
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen the long way round
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen a long way down
And if grief is a fallen leaf I believe I’ve fallen the long way round
Slow down, soft tread, light lead, pencil fall
Slow down, loose thread, reborn, new form
Slow down, loose thread, reborn, new form
In the leaves of a thousand steps
I retrace my path and the shapes of things
I’m looking earthward for a black wing flown
I saw a white feather curled like a tiny hand
Clinging to dry land flag-like
Memories of flight and soft fall
I retrace my path and the shapes of things
I’m looking earthward for a black wing flown
I saw a white feather curled like a tiny hand
Clinging to dry land flag-like
Memories of flight and soft fall
Ch
And it’s said you’ve got to let things go but I know I’m looking for lost things
And it’s said you’ve got to let things go but I know I’m looking for lost things
And they said don’t let things slide but I’m tired, I’m looking for lost things
And they said don’t let things slide but I’m tired, I’m looking for my black wing
And it’s said you’ve got to let things go but I know I’m looking for lost things
And it’s said you’ve got to let things go but I know I’m looking for lost things
And they said don’t let things slide but I’m tired, I’m looking for lost things
And they said don’t let things slide but I’m tired, I’m looking for my black wing
