Whippoorwill Lyrics
There's a hole in the house no fairground ride will fill
Nor time can kill
Since you went away
And if I don't climb in maybe no-one will
I could hide until
There's nothing left to say
But I won't let it go
Why won't I let it go?
But the Whippoorwill knows
There's a hole in the house no holiday can change
No wood can frame
Since you went away
Like a conversation scrubbed out on the page
On an unlit stage
Nothing left to say
But I won't let it go
Why won't I let it go?
But the Whippoorwill knows
I can feel it: hands around my neck
I can feel it: fingers on my eyes
I can feel it: leg across my leg
I can feel it anywhere I hide
There's a hole in the house no fairground ride will fill
But the Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill
There's a hole in the house feels like a lung held still
Like an unpaid bill
Since you went away
And your face is frozen but I hear you still
Hidden in a Whippoorwill
Calling out again
Nor time can kill
Since you went away
I could hide until
There's nothing left to say
Why won't I let it go?
But the Whippoorwill knows
No wood can frame
Since you went away
On an unlit stage
Nothing left to say
Why won't I let it go?
But the Whippoorwill knows
I can feel it: fingers on my eyes
I can feel it: leg across my leg
I can feel it anywhere I hide
But the Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill, Whippoorwill
Like an unpaid bill
Since you went away
Hidden in a Whippoorwill
Calling out again
