Flock of Words

A change in your voice was all that I heard

A quaverin' breath, a pause an a wordA shadow that suddenly covered my eyes

A ripplin' water, quite smooth otherwiseYou tried to go back and pave over the hole

Where an intake of breath had punctured my soul

Let me know, let me know, I need to knowA moment of silence, it now seems absurd

That I learned so much from a pause in a wordEvery bird on the wing leads the others along

Inside your flock of words somethin' went wrongI don't think that I was expecting a lot

I just saw that I'm passed bein' one who couldn't fly

Let me go, let me goI don't think that I was expecting a lot

I just saw that I'm passed bein' one who couldn't fly

Let me go, let me go, I need to go
