Sparrow Lyrics


Despite what you have heard
You cannot cage this bird
The sparrow on the wing
Longs to hear you sing
Once you have opened your heart to its church
You find that the sparrow won't come to its perchTears in conceit
Narrow as your caged beliefsIf you must assume the rose may never bloom
Is creation such a fact?
Can it be taken back?
Once you have opened your heart to its church
You find that your heart won't come home to its perch
Years to complete
Arrow winds in two wounds deep
Once for those who put a size on love
Once for those who only look above for sideways eights
Once you have opened your heart to its church
You find that your heart has come home to its perch

Ken Stringfellow is most widely known as Jon Auer's partner in the Seattle-based "power pop" group, The Posies, but is also a well-respected artist and producer in his own right.

Ken's solo career began with the 1997 release, This Sounds Like Goodbye and the low-fi, experimental feel of this album was a departure from the richness of The Posies sound.

His second solo release, Touched, had the misfortune of a September 11, 2001 street date and as a result, did not receive the attention it deserved. The outright experimentalism found in his solo debut was replaced by a more polished and rounded sound that is more reminiscent of his work in The Posies.

Stringfellow's third solo effort, Soft Commands, was released to critical acclaim in 2004.

In addition to his solo work and The Posies, Stringfellow has produced albums for several artists around the world and has worked with REM and Big Star, both in the studio and on the road.

According to Stringfellow's blog at http://www.kenstringfellow.com, a new solo album is being recorded in 2007. Read more on Last.fm. User-contributed text is available under the Creative Commons By-SA License; additional terms may apply.
