lyrics

Songbird by Ezra Vancil

She wonders through a meadow
The chamber plays the cello
deep and wide the strings are making love
I stand and watch here bending
as a flower’s life is ending
in her hair
the clouds watch from above
and now the fire beginning
truth is it’s never ending
heaven flow the darkness is her body in the light
Her lips are tasting bitter
her hips don’t seem to fit her
like a puzzle in the dark
there’s a tracings of her heart
I see a storm inside
As if I told a lie but she won’t know
the storm is making love
I taste her drifting finger
the potion seems to linger
drunk in tough
what was it made of
And now I’m feeling dizzy
As if the world is in me
All that I poured in her heart
was eatin by a hungry shark
She lays down in the medow
beneath me calm and mellow
Oh to touch her poison eyes
looking through me only lies
Songbird leaving
Now she’s gone
Songbird leaving
Now she’s gone

Easy On My Mind

It's a great Americana mood album. I played a show and camped with this duo at Kerrville Folk Festival and they are also great people with a powerful live presence. ezra vancil
