Her heart torn open | |
And left like an unanswered letter. | |
Words were not spoken | |
Just left in a spidery scrawl. | |
Twisted and gutted, | |
The last of the smoke in the air. | |
She gets up to leave | |
And idly fixes her hair. | |
Words from home, words from home. | |
What we miss are words from home. | |
I lost my heart | |
I left it alongside the river. | |
That blackbird clucking | |
Songs he knows nothing about. | |
That bird returning | |
To a home that makes him sing out. | |
Words from home, words from home. | |
What we need are words from home. |
