A scene across the skyline as if it was torn The sky is filling with flocks and swarms They burst through the branches, they tumble and fall Little gods surveying their worlds, examining it all
My wings are dusty with frost and coal For a little thing like you I'm too heavy a load You'll struggle and falter, amble around Just follow some other storm 'cause I'll only weigh you down
You carry home, my love Still you carry me home, little dove
A change in the wind, smoke on the breeze The sky is filled with the scent of burning leaves? The vapors rise from the glen in the east Where the path is clear for you and me
Still you carry me home, my love Still you carry me home, little dove
You rode towards the sun as it guides you home But don't be afraid, little bird, you aren't alone A hoard of friends will keep darkness at bay You're the needle in the hay
I'll take you with a steady hand Make the seam reborn The rip will be sewn up again By the same hand that had it torn
You carry me home, my love Still you carry me home, little dove Still you carry me home, my love Still you carry me home, little dove
Hear it approaching, the shuffle of feet The clamor of metal and hounds in heat We'll steal away to the glen in the east Where the path is clear for you and me
