I couldn't utter my love when it counted But I'm singing like a bird about it now And I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted But I'm singing like a bird about it now
Words hung above, but never would form Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn Remember me, love when I'm reborn As a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
I'd no idea on what ground I was founded All of that goodness is going with you now Then when met you, my virtues uncounted All of my goodness is going with you now
Dragging along, following your form Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn Remember me love, when I'm reborn As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
I fled to the city with so much discounted But I'm flying like a bird to you now Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted Ah but I'm flying like a bird to you now
I was housed by your warmth But I was transformed By your grounded and giving And darkening scorn Remember me love, when I'm reborn As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
