dave deporis - all night lyrics

Loading...

all night, all night
i hear them calling
outside, outside
it sounds like they’re humming
the song you sing when you know
that you’re gonna die

on my back
looking at the stars
oh my god, my god
how did they get so high up there?
they shine like something shines
when it knows
it’s gonna die

for the birds, the birds
the birds and children
these words, these words
i move to be near them +
the sound that strong things make
when they know
they’re gonna die

the moon, the moon
she knows all our secrets
but still she shines so beautifully on the sea, yes
oh, i thank you for gracing me
with your light through my darkest times
come dog, come dog
let me throw you a bone, yes
i’m growing old
and i can’t throw so well
but i hope that you don’t mind my friend
oh, i know you don’t mind

there’s a tree on my block
where the birds rest from flight
when the sun goes down on them
what a sight, yeah
goodbye to all of you my friends
may you fly for many more miles

you were born with an old man’s face
looking for the proof
and every path that you take
led right back to you

and i was impatient
i botched the equation
i lost my arithmetic book

and there i stood and i shook
until the awe overtook
grandma, grandpa
i send you this love, yes
this song that you can take on your voyage

wherever you wind up my friends
i hope you have a wonderful time

blow wind, blow wind
blow one more time
on my face, my skin
fill my lungs with one last breath –

and with it all i thank you
and i let go of this life

and with it all, god, i thank you
this gift –
this song to say goodbye…
