The Great Speckled Bird

road signs all show there is no cause for leaving, and the weeping wind knows
that i’m broken and beaten, for my love has just hurt me like nothing i know.
how can i step aside from the feelings inside when i dont want to let go.
let go and I know love will claim me again, forget how i love her and my spirit
would mend but her memory is like a fireside that warms me when cold.
while it’s burning i don’t wanna let go.
Sweet bitter dreams gather gently inside me, as i rode with the hoes finding
nothing to hide me.
for my love was my shelter, my shore and my home.
how can time repay what i gave a way when I dont wanna let go.
let go and i know love would claim me again.
forget how love will claim me again how i love her and my spirit would mend.
but her memory is like a fireside that warms me when cold while its burning i
don’t wanna let go.
while its burning i don’t wanna let go.
