Sparrow Lyrics
if I was not afraid to meet
then I might live in peace
I'd give away my wooden ears
help you teach your frozen lips to speak
you have not stolen here
but you can hardly sleep
the horns and shells you've gathered here
one day the one you battle might be me
blackbird, go lost
i will bring her back to you in spring
she won't change at all
let your sparrow fall to what might be
and when you've done your howling
and done with everything
if she is gone for months again
will you still say you watch for sparrow wings
you have not stolen dear
but I can plainly see
the horns and shells you're holding here
one day the one you battle might be me
blackbird, go lost
i will bring her back to you in spring
she won't change at all
let your sparrow fall to what might be
she won't change at all
let your sparrow fall
she won't change at all
let your sparrow fall
then I might live in peace
I'd give away my wooden ears
help you teach your frozen lips to speak
but you can hardly sleep
the horns and shells you've gathered here
one day the one you battle might be me
i will bring her back to you in spring
she won't change at all
let your sparrow fall to what might be
and done with everything
if she is gone for months again
will you still say you watch for sparrow wings
but I can plainly see
the horns and shells you're holding here
one day the one you battle might be me
i will bring her back to you in spring
she won't change at all
let your sparrow fall to what might be
let your sparrow fall
she won't change at all
let your sparrow fall

If ire is not a friend to me, then I might live in peace. I'd give away my wooden ears Help you teach your frozen lips to speak You have not stolen dear, but you can hardly sleep. The horns and shells you've gathered here One day, the one you battle might be me.
Let your bird go lost. I will bring her back to you in Spring. She won't change at all Let your sparrow fall to what might be.
And when you've done your howling, and done with everything If she is gone for months again Will you still say you watch for sparrow wings? You have not stolen dear, but I can plainly see. The horns and shells you've gathered here One day, the one you battle might be me.
Let your bird go lost. I will bring her back to you in Spring. She won't change at all Let your sparrow fall to what might be. She won't change at all Let your sparrow fall. She won't change at all Let your sparrow fall.
