Caribou - Boreal Forest Opper lyrics
[Caribou - Boreal Forest Opper lyrics]
It's feathered and brown
And it echoes off of nothing
As the trees come down it's the sound of a
Sparrow hittin' the ground
It's the sound of one eternity bound
It's the sound of one eternity bound
There's a cry in the oceans
It's plaintive and blue
And it rises from the depths
Breaks my heart in two
It's the dreams of the
Great whales running aground
For they know that they're eternity bound
For they know that they're eternity bound
Whoa eternity bound
Once they've passed into the timeless
They can never more be found
Is there anybody listening
Tell me can you hear the sound
Of the gentle ones eternity bound
Of the gentle ones eternity bound
There's a cry in the heart
Of every woman and man
We've been crying in the darkness
Since the world began
Will we ever seek forgiveness
Will we ever earn the crown
Or are we in turn eternity bound
Or are we in turn eternity bound
Whoa eternity bound
Once we've past into the timeless
We can never more be found
Is there anybody listening
Tell me can you hear the sound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
Of the lonely ones eternity bound
