Lyrics

Who should bind themselves to joy
Would it's winged life destroy
Those who kiss it flying by
Live in eternal sunrise

But what am I?

Why should I wait here?
Knocking at your door
Pulling at your sleeves
Walking on your shores

Maybe I should trust you?
When you call out to me
Desperate all my life
Tangled up in you

Sycophant, sycophant— blessings!

And I know that I should let you go
But I'm hungry hearted and on the floor
The sweet perfume of your afterglow
Casts a spell on me always more

Wakes me up from my deepest sleep
Alive to your fragrant mystery
Cascade through my history
And still you say: I should let this go?

Sycophant, sycophant— blessing!

At the edge of the world
Off the lip of it's curve
A raven will return
Flying over earth

Then off the edge the cliff
In the mouth of the bird
A circle song returns
Comforting the world
