A Small Clearing Lyrics - Singles - John Ralston

Used to be surrounded 

By a forest of pine 

But I made a small clearing 

I called it mine 

There was mist every morning 

It hung suspended in air 

Diffusing rays of the sunlight 

Making a glow of the glare 

Is it a funeral for heart and soul? 

Is it a funeral for heart and soul? 

One day some strangers stopped over 

And so I wasn't alone 

They started to like it out here 

They started calling it home 

Retreated into my bedroom 

I was locked, barred and bored 

And now the bird at my window 

She doesn't sing anymore 

Is it a funeral for heart and soul? 

Is it a funeral for heart and soul? 

I need you, sing to me 

At the top of your lungs 

At the top of your lungs 

You never cared so why would you start now? 

You never cared so why would you start now? 

You never cared so why would you start now? 

You never cared why would you start now?
