lyrics

There is a heart in you somewhere
But you have never been one to share
Tell me the things you never told
Show me how lead turns into gold

Give me the ground to fall at your feet
Give me the words you want me to speak

I see a window way up high
Where we'd look small and far away
You on my shoulder claw and wing
Oh who made us feather and tin

I hear an angel calling me
A voice familiar I can't place
Warm are the winds that call to you
Seasons will change around me

Give me the ground to fall at your feet
Give me the words you want me to speak
