| [00:12.95] |
Lovers accustomed to tragedy |
| [00:16.92] |
See every kiss in the window across the street |
| [00:22.13] |
Breezes and blessings passing by |
| [00:29.41] |
I'm in the shade of the dogwood tree |
| [00:33.54] |
Not the one where you told your name to me |
| [00:38.83] |
Two hungry blackbirds land near by |
| [00:46.06] |
If I could be over you when the sky starts falling |
| [00:55.42] |
Would you be happy under me |
| [01:02.77] |
If I could be under you if the earth was burning |
| [01:12.06] |
Could you be trusted over me |
| [01:23.46] |
Spoke to a mother whose baby drowned |
| [01:27.60] |
Gave me advice or a rumour she once heard |
| [01:32.86] |
Heaven's a distance not a place |
| [01:40.12] |
Gave her an ear from the corn we grew |
| [01:44.19] |
You were away but she gave her thanks to you |
| [01:49.38] |
That was a year ago come May |
| [01:56.64] |
If I could be over you when the sky starts falling |
| [02:05.95] |
Would you be smothered under me |
| [02:13.33] |
If I could be under you if the earth was burning |
| [02:22.57] |
Would you be cryin' over me |
| [03:44.47] |
I could hear kids in the yard next door |
| [03:48.44] |
Cats in the brush when the calendar fell down |
| [03:53.64] |
Wait by the shade-tree one more year |
| [04:00.96] |
Poetry tempered with tragedy |
| [04:04.99] |
Tempted and pulled when you cry upon my sleeve |
| [04:10.26] |
Two flocks of blackbirds meet the air |
| [04:17.55] |
If I could be over you when the sky starts falling |
| [04:26.91] |
Would you be happy under me |
| [04:34.06] |
If I could be under you if the earth was burning |
| [04:43.42] |
Could you be trusted over me |
