In the Yard歌词

[00:00.40]In the Yard - Bowerbirds
[00:11.13]Last night I dreamed we'd found a stand of trees
[00:15.88]
[00:16.64]framing a pond and a field in between.
[00:22.49]And with a hammer and a blade and our four hands,
[00:26.48]here's what we made.
[00:27.73]
[00:34.98]The logs we peeled and stacked in a ring,
[00:40.72]and then we crowned it, our tiny house, with tin.
[00:45.59]
[00:46.11]And by the fire, flickering bronze
[00:48.83]and gold across your face,
[00:51.74]
[00:53.23]I heard you say:
[00:54.38]
[00:58.74]It may not be a grand parade of snow capped peaks,
[01:04.38]
[01:07.04]no river silver-backed crashing through,
[01:11.26]
[01:15.49]but we have our black-haired babes running free
[01:20.15]through the woods.
[01:21.14]
[01:52.94]Squirrels in the rafters, wrens in the eaves,
[01:58.06]red dirt neath our nails, orange stains on our knees,
[02:02.97]
[02:04.01]blackberries in June down the path without our shoes.
[02:09.52]
[02:16.14]It may not be a grand parade of snow capped peaks,
[02:21.52]
[02:24.17]no river silver-backed crashing through,
[02:28.79]
[02:32.91]but we have our black-haired babes running free
[02:37.45]through the woods
[02:39.23]
[02:43.29]wooh wooh wooh
[02:58.09]
