Snow is gone

by Josh Ritter

Birds beneath my window dustying their wings upon the lawn
I hear them in the morning light giving last amen to a migratory song
They´re never looking round for me their eyes are on the sky or the ground below
But I´d rather be the one who loves than to be loved and never even know

Hello blackbird, hello starling
Winter´s over, be my darling
It´s been a long time coming
But now the snow is gone

You were beautiful when i first saw your feathers and confectionery airs
Like the earth it up and promised you the stars but you really didn´t care
I sang in exultation pulled the stops - you always looked a little bored
But I´m singing for the love of it - have mercy on the man who sings to be adored

Hello blackbird, hello starling
Winter´s over, be my darling
It´s been a long time coming
But now the snow is gone

I´m underneath your window now - it´s long after the birds have gone to roost
And I´m not sure if I´m singing for the love of it or for the love of you
But I´ve flown a long way honey hear my confession then I´ll go
I´d rather be the one who loves than to be loved and never even know

Hello brown one, hello blue one
Last night´s feathers exchanged for new ones

Hello blackbird, hello starling
Winter´s over, be my darling
It´s been a long time coming
But now the snow is gone
