Feathery

They came along and washed my soul so easy
High above myself, but I could hear them anyway
The wind is taking them away so feathery
To show them all the places they can reach

And it's not too far for them to go and leave
Me all alone like there's no guarantee for such a dream
And they bequeath me a black feather on the way
And I say, yes, I am a dreamer and these feathers
They won't stay

And I will try
Trying to hold you
With my arms around your heart
Even though love is going to kill me
I will try

And I will try
Trying to hold you
With my arms around your heart
Even though love is going to kill me
I will try
