The Decemberists - The Queen's Approach lyrics

rate me

<BR>

I'm <br>

Made of bones of the branches <br>

The boughs and the brow-beating light <br>

<br>

While my feet are the trunks <br>

And my head is the canopy high <br>

<br>

And my fingers extend <br>

To the leaves <br>

And the eaves <br>

And the (bright?) <br>

<br>

Might I shine? <br>

It's my shine (child?) <br>

<br>

He <br>

Was a baby abandoned <br>

Entombed in a cradle of claim (clay?) <br>

<br>

And I was a soul <br>

Who took pity <br>

And stole him away <br>

<br>

And gave him the form of <br>

A fawn to inhabit <br>

By day <br>

<br>

Bright Eyes, stay <br>

It's my day <br>

<br>

And you <br>

Have removed this temptation <br>

That's troubled my innocent child <br>

<br>

To abduct and abuse and to render, (bereft?) and defiled <br>

<br>

But the river is deep <br>

To the banks and the water is wild, <br>

I will fly you <br>

To the far side<br>

<BR><BR>

<BR>
