"Song Of The Cranes" lyrics

"Song Of The Cranes"

Listen to the song of the cranes
Watch them as they bow their heads
I was there, on the myriad of ways
And walked without you for a hundred days

My journey I owe to you
After all what we've been through
I've still got a lot of love for you

I have had it in my hands
I've been carrying it all along
I just didn't realize
I couldn't see it could all be wrong

Our pounding, torn and blackened heart
The wound that never seems to heal
Even if it's obvious
I have no answers why you're gone

What dwells in silver doesn't hide
I've given what I could
And maybe in this life
What dwells in silver doesn't hide
I've given what I could
And maybe in this life I've given all

I hear drumming in the distance
Snakes announcing their return
Only so much blood can flow
That water can wash away

What dwells in silver doesn't hide
I've given what I could
And maybe in this life
What dwells in silver doesn't hide
I've given what I could
And maybe in this life I've given all

I have had it in my hands
I've been carrying it all along
I just didn't realize
I couldn't see it
