Lyrics
Everything That Dies
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.
Wait on the breeze through red top trees
Pining will roam, ask where you've grown
Seven geese in flight call from a great height
Grey wing, then white, grey wing, then white
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
Down to the woods where I first stood
Down to the foot where I drew blood
Ten gees in flight call from a great height
Grey wings, then white, grey wings, then white
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
You said everyone you know one day will surely die
But everything that dies in some way returns
