The Wooden Sky Follow

Well I dreamt last night you were makin' love
To a bird you swore you'd given up oh
How I woke up shakin'
The wolves kept watch on the wind outside
I kept my eyes towards the wooden sky oh
There would be no escaping
And the rent we'd sworn would be enough
To bind a love that had somehow fallen short
Was now overdue
I held your breath trying to get you high
Heard your lover's song as it filled the night
I fired two into the sky and kept one for you oh
The fire burned bright right above our bed
Kept us up all night trying to make amends
Oh child your call is in vain and I'm onto you
I awoke to find that the time had come
To leave behind this mess that we once called home
Well tonight this child of god will be forced to choose oh
It was at the sight of the hands of the working man
Outside my window and a voice in my head spoke
Of making plans so clear and simple
I kept one for you.
