《Come Comet or Dove》歌词

[00:00:00] Come Comet or Dove - Devon Sproule

[00:00:09] The heat had set in as the summer began

[00:00:13] I had just ceased to sing winter sore tune

[00:00:17] And rested my arm on the forgotten farmer

[00:00:22] Of all that I can call my fortune

[00:00:35] Fall broke the beak of the small bird that beat

[00:00:39] In his breast and out through his heels

[00:00:43] And I heart sunk to think of it's stammering wing

[00:00:47] Beneath heavy and relentless wheels

[00:01:08] I pulled up in the evening while he was still sleeping

[00:01:12] Out jumped I and ran cross his floor

[00:01:17] And there he lay white and a guardian darling

[00:01:21] Caught up in slumber and I caught at his door

[00:01:25] He blushes therefore he is guilty cried I

[00:01:30] Of some private reverie grand so I took him

[00:01:34] And shook him and made to unhook him

[00:01:38] By squeezing and slapping his hand

[00:01:44] The slow work of a blank book hung where we met

[00:01:50] And he slept in the depths of his bed

[00:01:55] And I oh kissed the sweat from his head

[00:01:59] Right or wrong to him alone I come to be fed

[00:02:07] I said come back to me love come comet or dove

[00:02:12] To my garden come bladed or bled
