Big Thief - Black Crow lyrics
[Big Thief - Black Crow lyrics]
There's a black crow flying up the river
It's a long way back downhill
Will the silence be forgiver?
Maybe time will tell
Your daddy wants you to love him
Wants you to love a man
If you keep your arms around me
It could ruin the plan
So you draw a line between us
When to stop and when to start
We come together and then you pull us apart
There's a black crow flying up the river
It's a long way back downhill
Will the silence be forgiver?
Maybe time will tell
Chicago couldn't hold you
New York City, your childhood home
California you found a place to live alone
And your mamma wants you to hold hеr
She wants you to take her hand talk to hеr
She'll come to understand
But because of fear
Because of fear you draw the line between us
You say when to stop and when to start
We come together and then you take us apart
And your daddy
Your daddy he wants you to love him
By loving a man
And if you, if you keep your arms around me
It could ruin the plan
There's a black crow flying up the river
It's a long way back downhill
Will the silence be forgiver?
Maybe time will tell
There's a black crow flying up the river
It's a long way back downhill
It's a long way back downhill
Will the silence be forgiver?
Maybe time will tell
Your daddy wants you to love him
Wants you to love a man
If you keep your arms around me
It could ruin the plan
So you draw a line between us
When to stop and when to start
We come together and then you pull us apart
There's a black crow flying up the river
It's a long way back downhill
Will the silence be forgiver?
Maybe time will tell
Chicago couldn't hold you
New York City, your childhood home
California you found a place to live alone
And your mamma wants you to hold hеr
She wants you to take her hand talk to hеr
She'll come to understand
But because of fear
Because of fear you draw the line between us
You say when to stop and when to start
We come together and then you take us apart
And your daddy
Your daddy he wants you to love him
By loving a man
And if you, if you keep your arms around me
It could ruin the plan
There's a black crow flying up the river
It's a long way back downhill
Will the silence be forgiver?
Maybe time will tell
There's a black crow flying up the river
It's a long way back downhill
