[Part I: Earthbound (Sylvian)]
[Chorus]
Like a black crow standing on a sea of shells
She’s blessed by magic and the sound of liberty’s bells
And I’ll raise the curfew and sit by her door
She’s been through this world before
[Verse 1]
Out in the snowfields, coyote tracks
She calls out its name with the words I lack
And it turns its head and howls to the moon
She’s gonna be leaving me soon
[Verse 2]
She’s giving me questions and quizical looks
She tears up my papers and burns all my books
They gave her nothing she didn’t already know
She’s getting ready to go
[Verse 3]
Down in the basement among her things
I opened her boxes and found her rings
I offered her money she said “They’re not for sale”
She guards her secrets well
[Chorus]
Like a black crow standing on a sea of shells
She’s blessed by magic and the sound of liberty’s bells
And I’ll raise the curfew and sit by her door
She’s been through this world before
[Verse 1]
Out in the snowfields, coyote tracks
She calls out its name with the words I lack
And it turns its head and howls to the moon
She’s gonna be leaving me soon
[Verse 2]
She’s giving me questions and quizical looks
She tears up my papers and burns all my books
They gave her nothing she didn’t already know
She’s getting ready to go
[Verse 3]
Down in the basement among her things
I opened her boxes and found her rings
I offered her money she said “They’re not for sale”
She guards her secrets well
