歌詞
[Intro] [Verse] The orchard's grown a tangled crown The rusted gate is weighed down The golden grass is turning grey I’m searching for a yesterday [Verse] The ladder rungs are soft with rot The sun is mottled on the floor A sanctuary I forgot Behind a narrow wooden door [Chorus] I left a piece of me up there Suspended in the quiet air A cedar wing, a wooden beak The secrets that I couldn't speak [Verse] I carved it with a pocket knife Before the heavy days of life Its eyes are just two pencil dots Tied in messy sailor knots [Chorus] I left a piece of me up there Suspended in the quiet air A cedar wing, a wooden beak The secrets that I couldn't speak [Hook] Fifteen years is a long time To leave a bird without a rhyme To leave a heart without a home Beneath the sky's inverted dome [Bridge] I touch the wood and feel the grain The phantom of a summer rain I wonder if he’s still inside The version of me that I hide [Verse] The shadows stretch across the hill The morning air is damp and still The property is overgrown With seeds that I have never sown [Chorus] I left a piece of me up there Suspended in the quiet air A cedar wing, a wooden beak The secrets that I couldn't speak [Post-Chorus] A cedar wing A quiet thing The bells that ring The songs we sing [Outro]
