The Incredible String Band - White Bird lyrics

[The Incredible String Band - White Bird lyrics]

Who among you has not laid his head
Beneath some holy awning
Would think that such a
Night of tortured travelling
Could bring such a glory morning
And feel his heart sucked to his head
His head so wide that all life says
Has room to live and breathe
And have it's being and more
For such a scene of beauty
For such a scene of beauty encompasses

See the white bird on the water
In beauty calm and still

White bird, white bird, white bird
Of the morning white bird, white bird

White bird, white bird, white bird
Of the morning white bird, white bird



See he watches the white bird of the morning
White bird, white bird

See he watches the white bird of the morning
White bird, white bird

Warm in his ecstasy
A shimmering gentle backward fall
He leaves his body there
So small and mirror black against the sun
With deities for strength
He sees his body wracked with pain
And hears his voice so
Stained with sadness deep
It asks the day to weep away

Loved her so strong now she is gone
My heart will break for ever

Sun and moon change around
Me the games seem so strange

Walk in the light i shall never
Walk in the light i will never

White bird, white bird, white bird
Of the morning white bird, white bird
White bird, white bird, white bird
Of the morning white bird, white bird

White bird, white bird, white bird
Of the morning white bird, white bird

White bird, white bird, white bird
Of the morning white bird, white bird

Oh speak to me with your beauty
Oh white bird of the morning
Oh he cried, oh he cried but stopped
Short seeing not water but ice
Death not life dead white bird
Dead white bird

Walking onward every day
Sunshine in our faces

Sun knows what goes on below
But still our faces graces no disgraces
No distastes nothing wasted at all
White bird, white bird, white bird
Of the morning white bird, white bird
