Sparrow Songtext
von Charlotte Church
Sparrow Songtext
I awake most days
Below a robin′s nest
With my wings so cold
And a heart that overflows
To redden snow
I've been an envelope
Are you the sparrow?
With a letter-red
Blood-fluttered
In plumes
For the bayonet has carved away And it carves away
At the arrowhead lodged within my breast
Sparrow
We all end up
Buried in the snow
So pick leaves and cover me
Pluck the arrow from my breast
And let me rest
So far below
The robin′s nest.
Below a robin′s nest
With my wings so cold
And a heart that overflows
To redden snow
I've been an envelope
Are you the sparrow?
With a letter-red
Blood-fluttered
In plumes
For the bayonet has carved away And it carves away
At the arrowhead lodged within my breast
Sparrow
We all end up
Buried in the snow
So pick leaves and cover me
Pluck the arrow from my breast
And let me rest
So far below
The robin′s nest.
