Sparrow

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
