Jackdaw

I'm like a jackdaw Cawing at your back door Scratching at your windowpane Hey throw your window wide And taste the April night with me again Girl we been veering Backwards disappearing Down into the murky deep Baby come on We'll be a long 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 Tantalizingly 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 --- Jackdaw - David Gray
