lyrics

Feathers and Tar

Words and music: Joseph Edgar

I sometimes get ahead of myself
As I sometimes break away
Running through the ashes
Of the fires of the day
I sometimes take the time
To take a pause to wait for you
But sometimes is not long enough
And too often it's the truth

Now we’re here
What have you done to me?
Tore away my eyes
And hung them up upon that tree
So now we’re there
What have we done so far?
Except to cover up our kisses
In feathers and tar

I sometimes need to take a walk
Along the rocky shores
Of south west Nova Scotia
Now don't ask me now what for
Sometimes isn't often enough
That's what she tried to say
But i couldn't hear her talking
With all of the seaspray

Now we’re here
What have you done to me?
Tore away my eyes
And hung them up upon that tree
So now we’re there
What have we done so far?
Except to cover up our kisses
In feathers and tar

Children come and then they grow
We grow as well with them
As the days come in and the days go out
As often as they can
High above that treetop
My eyes were drenched by rain
Falling from the clear blue sky
And i know it'll come again

Now we’re here
What have you done to me?
Tore away my eyes
And hung them up upon that tree
So now we’re there
What have we done so far?
Except to cover up our kisses
In feathers and tar

I sometimes get ahead of myself
As I sometimes break away
Running through the ashes
Of the fires of the day

Now we’re here
What have you done to me?
Tore away my eyes
And hung them up upon that tree
So now we’re there
What have we done so far?
Except to cover up our kisses
In feathers and tar
