Another "Wild Geese" song
LYR ADD:
WILD GEESE
Mary McGinniss
(from "Places In Between",2005)
I was young then, I didn't know,
I kept running down this road.
When the nights came falling, I'd get close
I would remember, then I'd forget.
Cool water, the clearest blue
the wild geese in the west,
and the sound from their throats
and the look on your face
gives you a moment, a moment of grace
Have you heard the sound of their wings
above the water?
I am so sorry that I was gone
I am so sorry that you were alone
Where are we going?
What do we do?
I will always go
toward this love for you
And the sound of their wings
and the look on your face
gives you a moment a moment of grace
Wild Geese fly in the middle of the night
stars and rivers are their guides.
We toss and turn in our beds,
dreams and passions in our heads.
In the heart of this storm,
you sleep better with snow on the ground
and the sound of their wings
and the look on your face
gives you a moment a moment of grace
