Steemit OpenMic Week 84 @paintingangels "Crow Song" (original song)
I'm quite a mess this morning, just crawled out of the shower, hair is still wet but look at me, got this in on a Monday! Yeah! Listen with your eyes closed, it sounds better and you can imagine this young woman hanging by the feet of a crow from a tree limb.. not something you see every day.. she sure wishes her darling would rescue her.. but he is unable. It's impossible. This song is about impossible love. It does exist.
Lyrics
As the wind comes to play
I shall hang from the trees
by the feet of a crow
And I will blow a kiss
to you
And I will whisper to the moon
and to the stars and the clouds
and you'll know
That the moon can't forgive
and the stars, they just know
and the clouds melt away
like the snow
Like the snow
If this tree burns straight down
to the ground
and the crow lets me go and I run
Kiss me softly, my dear
and pretend not to know.
Cause my heart can't bare
to be thrown
to the crow.
