"Raven" lyrics

"Raven"

All the gods came to the human court
There were more numbers than what we thought
Couldn't keep track so they gave us all a name
Saw a young shadow dancing in the street
Knew that someday she will comfort me
When the day's labour is done we'll meet again

And we don't want much so we don't have none
We could ask for more but we don't know how
It's the choice we made, it's the life we know
When my raven calls and it's time to go

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Every idea has a starting place
Nothing begins in an empty space
I can go far when I look into your heart
Race you once more 'round the block and back
Heard you've been hanging about in black
If we leave now we'll be home before it stops

And it's a lonely way but it's all we know
When my raven calls and it's time to go

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Oh, my love is a raven
And she's more than enough
Tell my love if you see her
She's my raven and she's loved

Oh oh oh, oh oh oh
Oh oh oh, oh oh oh

Oh, my love is a raven
And she's more than enough
Tell my love if you see her
She's my raven and she's loved
