This Wind

Nobody knew

What the raven would do

If he found it was rain in your hands

Like a dog set on wheels

You will lope down the street

From the sound of the scratch in his claws

As the buildings who hide

You knew nothing about time

But an arrow just brushin' your chin

You said, "Damn be this wind

Is still movin' on in

To the bones and the bed of my soul"

You said, "Damn be this wind

It's still movin' on in

To the bones and the bed of my soul"

Like a fox on the run

From the well-informed son

With the bearin's for cannonball love

Just like nobody said

Where that eagle was fed

'Till you stood on the black cross in June

Just like nobody said

Where that eagle was fed

'Till you stood on the black cross in June

And nobody said

That the raven was dead

So you hid all your tears in the grass

Sure, it could look like dew

But they're laughin' at you

And they'll send in their clowns when you're lost

Sure, it could look like dew

But they're laughin' at you

And they'll send in the clowns when you're lost

You said, "Damn be this wind

It's still movin' on in

To the bones and the bed of my soul"
