lyrics
Father grant me patience
Will you give me your strength?
To wind back the clocks
So I don’t see you lying in the chapel there
Will the circle be unbroken
Will time start again
Tell me did you have birthmarks?
I can’t picture them again
Did you know it was the last time?
After you had died
Sparrow at my door
Wings all alight
In heaven’s deathly throes
I can’t picture them again
Did you know it was the last time?
Tell me why i see you
In my lover’s eyes
In my mothers voice
In my sisters’s cry
Tell me why
Sparrow at my door
Father hear my plea
Visit in my dreams
Angels all around
Will you watch over James
Grant my brother strength
Did wrens and robins apparitions visit him
After you had died
Sparrow at my door
Wings all alight
In heaven’s deathly throes
I can’t picture them again
Did you know it was the last time?
Tell me why i see you
In my lover’s eyes
In my mothers voice
In my sisters’s cry
Tell me why
Sparrow at my door
Father hear my plea
Visit in my dreams
Asking for a place till the tides move, duke and kathy, mother natalie
Saving me again when the ships crash, you were our mast, 5 years moves fast
Saving you a spot at the table, cherry blossoms, in our fable
Racing to catch up to your shadow, and won’t you tell me why i see you
In my lover’s eyes
In my mothers voice
In my sisters’s cry
Your bride where is she now, little sparrow
Tell me does she know about the cherry blossoms
Did she know it was the last time?
