Black moon above, stars overhead
don't you dare guide me back to my bed
the river is frozen, the pollen path's bare
don't wait for me darling there's thorns in my hair
falconry's cross, many moons dead
don't you dare silence this song in my head
the flowers are broken, the pollen path's bare
don't speak to me darling, till blood blades his hair
cause how long, how long, how long was the earth there
how long can we say we belong here
you say, you say,
how long, how long can we stay together
Pardon the sky, pardon the earth
when will we stop this rain of his words?
the stars are all woken, the pollen path's there
so sing with me darling, let down your long hair
cause how long, how long, how long was the earth there
how long can we say we belong here
you say, you say,
how long, how long can we stay together
