Songtext von Crow

I think of you much more than I Would like to admit that I Do before strangers But there you are Whistling through the trees again Rustling through the leaves my friend A feather on my pillow Let's me know that you're near I remember the night that you arrived December maybe, '95 Your hair and your breath smelled Of John Player Specials A stranger who I learned to love A friend when really no one was My Daedalus, my wings to fly Why'd you leave me behind? My beautiful crow And all those black feathers Perched deep in my soul Won't let me let you go I never really thanked you for All of the light you brought Into my mother's eyes So many others tried Her sadness since the day you left She will not get out of bed She stares out the window Smokes a black pack of JPS I was out on St Paul's When I heard about your fall Walking with Caroline She bums smokes from time to time I walked home alone that night I could feel you when I closed my eyes I looked up into the night And watched black feathers fall from the sky I think of you much more than I'm allowed to admit But I do I still do My beautiful crow And all those black feathers Perched deep in my soul Won't let me let you go I have tried to push you down I have tried to cut you out You're rattling your cage I'm rattling my cage I have tried to drown you out Drink till I don't hear the sound The song's still the same The song's still the same My beautiful crow And all those black feathers Perched deep in my soul Won't let me let you go
