Jackdaw Lyrics

The song Jackdaw is performed by David Gray in the album named Draw the Line in the year 2009 .

I'm like a jackdaw

Cawing at your backdoor

Scratching at your window pane

Hey throw your window wide

And taste the April night with me again

Girl we been veering

Backwards disappearing

Down in to the murky deep

Baby come on

We'll be along time gone

That's time enough for sleep

And hey now don't run and hide

Your little heart away

If it's gone

We'll sure never find it

Pining for lost innocence

Our hammers beating hard

Against that old facade

Some other air to breathe

That we might break these molds

And free our restless souls

Start to believe

That we can rise above

Our pettiness and love

Like we ain't loved before

Free on this earth

As the surf that rolls

And crashes on the shore

And hey now don't run and hide

Your little heart away

If it's gone

We'll sure never find it

Pining for lost innocence

Tantalisingly I saw

Our shadows moving through the door

Traces from a different time

When I was yours and you were truly mine

All mine

And I still want you yeah

I still want you yeah

I still want you yeah

I still want you yeah

And I still want you yeah

I still want you yeah

I still want you yeah

I still want you

And baby don't run and hide

Your little heart away

If it's gone

We'll sure never find it

Pining for lost innocence

Pining for lost innocence

Pining for lost innocence
