Doves Lyrics

See the face of fall approaching

See the call of winer nights

It's faster than your eyes are blinking

But that's alright

Squirrels chase the schoolboys off their days

The widow pays her dogs to play

There's no tempest on horizons

That's alright

The darkness tunnels into dawn

The branches prop the jackets torn

And the doves will fly across the road tonight

Pretty tales will have an ending

Birds can only come to landing

When it's time to close the ferry

I shall see you in the morning

They hesitate to kiss the ground

They meditate to foreign sounds

Until it's time for me to see

The heart to which I hold the key

Turns around

See the face of spring compiling

She smiles to look upon the men

There's no tempest on horizons

That's alright

The darkness tunnels into dawn

The branches prop the jackets torn

And the doves will fly across the road tonight
