The wind howls 'cross the ice floes. Send the frozen snow skimming. A river on a river hardened over. It doesn't know the way it's going. Is it north or south or westward.
Imagine you're a girl on ten mile stilts. You travel round the world, taking it all in. You'll never touch the ground. Is it a blessing or a curse. And if you're too high to be found.
I have come back to you broken. take me home. And my body bears this trouble. take me home. Take me back to my beginning. Before the hell of night set in.
Think of this heart as an old accident. A hardened hit and run. Looking ahead but just a little scared. To keep all eyes on the road. . Can you be sure.
Hey, maybe the time. just wasn't right to hang on. When are you gonna learn. Sometimes things turn instead of turn out. . Hey, when are you gonna stand.
Oh sweet peace, never have you fallen. Never have you fallen upon this town. Oh sweet peace, never have you fallen. Never have you fallen upon this town.
Where do you go little bird. When it snows, when it snows. When the world turns to sleep. Do you know, do you know. Is there something in the wind. Breathes a chill in your heart and life in your wings.
