I couldn't utter my love when it counted Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now The bite on above But never would fall in Like a crane at the final breath that is drawn Remember me, love when everyone Is a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn And I had no idea on what ground I was found in All that goodness is gone with you now There when I met you my virtues uncounted All of my goodness is gone with you now Driving alone, following your form Hung like the pearl of some prey you had worn Remember me love, when everyone Is the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn I fled to the city with so much discounted Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now I was highest by your warmth And I was transformed But your gounded and giving And darkening scorn Remember me, love when I'm reborn As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
