Pigeon

Come on closer in my arms

I want to share your breath

Lonely … on my own

Dance for me and give me wine

I’ll play the game you want me

In backstreets I portray your name

And kick the tins of my life

Sound … no one hears

Play my song on your piano

Let me be your keys

Let me be your chain and wear me close to the heart

Let me be your ring and kiss me when you’re all alone

‘Cause I’ll do everything to bring you spring

Just come close to me and vet my broken wing

Swing my flag over the hill of skeletons

And burn them all to ash

Dead … soul migrations

Dig me a grave if I die

And plant an apple tree

Do not forget that I was in your mind

And expect to see me again

Sometime … you can manage

I will be there and kiss your hand

And I won’t allow letting you go

Let me be your chain and wear me close to the heart

Let me be your ring and kiss me when you’re all alone

‘Cause I’ll do everything to bring you spring

Just come close to me and vet my broken wing
