The Missing Man
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Once wanted, wailing we
Wept high as the sky
And the sky
Beloved, weeping I
Gazed high and the sky
And the sky cried back
There's a missing man
Easy to find (easy to)
There's a missing man
Easy to find, with eyes like mine
Unwanted orphaned tears
Like mine, raised the tide
Raised the tide
Once wishing, wistful I
Sang high, raised the tide
Till the sea's mouth dried
There's a missing man
Easy to find (easy to)
There's a dying man
Easy to find, with eyes like mine
Something about his shouts
Something about his cries
Something about his eyes
Quite resembles mine
There's a missing man
Easy to find (easy to)
There's a dying man
Easy to find, with eyes like mine
