Snow Owl
Lyrics
You came down from heaven to the branch outside my window Your feathers were the color of snow ♪ The dice were loaded against us ever seeing each other But one of us had nowhere else to go ♪ In your eyes were all the colors the rainbow forgot Your wingspan was three feet wide or better ♪ With your voice practicing notes from time's own beginning You took apart the alphabet letter by letter And here, where it all stops for good Where the cool waters run Thought I saw a mouse kicking in your beak It was only a skeleton
