Lyrics

Something will shine in the backyard
Blue lanterns or Saint Gerard
Who was lost in the snow
Something will shine on the ground
My Father will bend His ear to the ground
When we are lost in Carlisle
When we are birdless
Flowerless in the spring
And we cannot sing
Oh Father John in the driveway
When we walk out he will bless us
With his hands on our heads
All down the sidewalk there are these chalk ballerinas
The neighbors drew with arms to the sky
When we are lost in Carlisle
When we are birdless
Flowerless in the spring
And we cannot sing
Where are we going tomorrow
Where are we going?
Oh I can only say we will be found
Something will shine in the backyard
Blue lanterns or Saint Gerard
Who was lost in the snow
