Joan Baez - The Swallow Song lyrics

[Joan Baez - The Swallow Song lyrics]

Come wander quietly and listen to the wind
Come here and listen to the sky
Come walking high above the
Rolling of the sea
And watch the swallows as they fly

There is no sorrow like the
Murmur of their wings
There is no choir like their song
There is no power like the
Freedom of their flight
While the swallows roam alone

Do you hear the calling of
A hundred thousand voice
Hear the trumbling in the stone
Do you hear the angry bells
Ringing in the night
Do you hear the swallows when they've flown?
And will the breezes blow the
Petals from your hand
And will some loving ease your pain
And will the silence strike
Confusion from your soul
And will the swallows come again?
