bruce cockburn - twilight on the champlain sea lyrics

[intro]
one, two, one two three

[verse 1]
pigeon on a railing looking down at the river
river that flows where there used to be sea
so long ago n0body remembers
just these sh+lls you dig up where there used to be trees
after every conversation with someone i wanna know
it’s like i didn’t take enough of them or leave enough of me
i’m just too hungry
[verse 2]
sun goes off the water, thеre’s a ring around the moon
all+embracing darknеss will be taking over soon
there’s a cloud of witness in the houses, hills and passing cars
the cameras, cops and voyeurs who all wanna be pop stars
there’s a kink in my d+ck that started when my baby said goodbye
still i thank her now for reminding me how i always loved the sky
i’m an air sign after all

[electric piano solo]

[verse 3]
respect, okay, but that’s a basic human right
everybody gets that until they prove they’re not entitled
i want something more from you and i don’t mean casual s+x
that never really worked for me, maybe in my next life
a water+logged sponge is how the mirror paints my face
a troll under that pigeon’s bridge curled in his hiding place
i jam my hat hard on my head to hold that monster down
just can’t shake the feeling you and i could once be found
in the same skin
in the same skin
