Sun Kil Moon - Tonight the Sky lyrics
[Sun Kil Moon - Tonight the Sky lyrics]
Soft white down
Her hair warm autumn colors, floating
Our days were classroom poems
True young love
Some nights we roar like lions
Some we coo like doves
I left her long ago one summer
Chasing dreams
I hum good sweet explosions, sweet nothings
I broke her heart not knowing she'd return
And graven scars deep in me forever
I hear my sleeping sister
In the early morning hours
I hear her though it's silent
Standing over me now tonight the skies
Will open for you mountains and big clouds
Divide us in two
She fell into his arms, his sweet
Strong kiss
She made her perfect gardens in this
World that turned it's back
Shook things 'round
In time it took our loving sister down
I met my fallen angel one last time
I promised always through me she would shine
I held her hands, I sunk into her heart
'Til powers unrelenting pulled us apart
I saw my sleeping sister
Rising toward a light
A mist above the skyline
On that never ending night
Tonight bright stars are shining for you
Oceans and full moons deep midnight blue
I woke up every morning
Not believing her to be gone
Outside the doves and sparrows carried on
Building now so sweetly settled into spring
Outside the kids in their yards
Laughing and playing
I loved you like no other
Your eyes I can't erase
Your voice it wakes me always
Pouring down from space
Like warm sun rays you're turning into
Wild sails on cool bays i'm watching for you
Tonight the skies are open for you
Mountains and big clouds dividing in two
