Snow Is Gone Lyrics
The song Snow Is Gone is performed by Josh Ritter in the album named Hello Starling in the year 2003 .
birds beneath my window dustying their wings upon the lawn
Hear 'em in the morning light a last amen to a migratory song
theyre never looking round for metheir eyes are on the sky or the ground below
Id rather be the one who loves than to be loved and never even know
hello blackbird
hello starling
winters over
be my darling
a long time coming
but now the snow is gone x 2
you were beautiful when I first saw your feathers and confectionery airs
the earth lit up and promised you the stars but you really didnt care
I sang in exultation i pulled the stopsyou always looked a little bored
Im singing for the love of ithave mercy on the man who sings to be adored
hello blackbird
hello starling
winters over
be my darling
long time coming
but now the snow is gone
Im underneath your window nowits long after the birds have gone to roost
Im not sure if Im singing for the love of it or for the love of you
Ive flown a long way honey oh hear my confession then Ill go
Id rather be the one who loves than to be loved and never even know
hello brown one
hello blue one
last nights feathers
exchanged for new ones
hello blackbird
hello starling
winters over
be my darling
long time coming
but now the snow is gone x 2
so long.....
