"Migration" lyrics

"Migration"

My love will sail this ship
Through great storms and ice floes
He is not afraid as I am
He is not afraid

And this is why he knows the way
And this is why he knows the way
He knows the way

Oh, my brothers and sisters, he is so kind
Despite the losses that have made us this sad
Five blocks of sidewalk chalk he steers us clear of
Blue ice skaters and animals

And this is why he knows the way
And this is why he knows the way
He knows the way

All the birds of this neighborhood are leaving
Some days we feel left behind
