Tunng - Crow Lyrics

Old friend, do you make the sun set
Do you make the bright stars flee
Old crow, time is getting late
I know you've a gift for me

Old bird, I see it in your talons
Glittering between the leaves
Friend I'm swimming in the shallows
You're calling from the deep

And we bide our time
And we shed our skins
And we shake our bones
And we sink like stone
And we crawl through mud
Til we reach the sky
And we bide our time

Old bird, you and I are brothers
Bonded by earth and wood
Old crow, you and I are sisters
Swimming in a bowl of blood

Old friend, you and I were strangers
Living by a restless sea
Friend I knew when the wind blew
That you were calling me

And we bide our time
And we shed our skins
And we shake our bones
And we sink like stone
And we crawl through mud
Til we reach the sky
And we bide our time
