lyrics

Look at the trees they dance for
you and for me just hear the
song that they sing they’re bleeding
tiny red wings it begins
I feel the wind rising again

Look at the sky so heavy with
stars in the night too much for
you and for I blue like the
tears that we cry it begins
I feel the wind rising again
and though it’s unmistakable we just look away

But I tried to tell myself that
It was fear and nothing more
and I tried to shut my ears but the
pounding I could not ignore
well these shadows are stretching it’s plain to see
and it seems to me my hope flies on tiny red wings

Look at the sun it looms so
ancient and strong so big we’ve
nowhere to run its tears aren’t
blue like our own it begins
you feel the wind rising again

Now Look in the eyes of the good
people resigned content to
go ‘bout their lives red wings sprout
from you and I and it begins
can you feel the winds rising again?
and though it’s unmistakable we just turn away

Well, I tried to tell myself that
It was fear and nothing more
and I tried to shut my ears but the
pounding I could not ignore
well the shadows are stretching it’s plain to see
and it seems to me my hope flies on tiny red wings

When the wind starts blowing I will just fly away
When the flood comes for me I can soar above the rain
and when the earth is fevered and the sun cries for our pain
(Sun cries for our pain) Please red wings fly me away

Look at the trees they dance for you and for me

Well, I tried to tell myself that
It was fear and nothing more
and I tried to shut my ears but the
pounding I could not ignore
well the shadows are stretching it’s plain to see
and it seems to me my hope
Well, it seems to me my hope
Well, it seems to me my hope
flies on tiny red wings.
