If This Is Our Swan Song

from Crying For The Moon by The Sandman's Orchestra

/

lyrics

if this is our swan song
can I ruffle your feathers

and pretend for a final moment
we still belong together

a bird of prey eats away at my heart
in darkness he holds me tight

his wings of steel they keep me trapped
in the wax figure of the night

hearts come undone
as we watch vultures on the loose

I follow you round
cry over all the traps you fall into

birdsong of the winter
froze our faces

we dug for beauty and a grain of truth
in the ashes of the land

but the dreams I dreamt with you
they were built on sand

now I have to draw the curtains
on your tired eyes

we’re an ocean and a world apart
as the crow flies

hearts come undone
as we watch vultures on the loose

I follow you round
cry over all the traps you fall into

birdsong of the winter
froze our faces
