Lyrics

I lost a place that I loved
It disappeared
Into the woods where it belonged
That cool spot
On a sun-parched ridge
That watery pool
Where the animals drink
Do you hear that sound?
The hurdle crashing down
Do you miss that breeze?
That's what our mother believed
It was the land
The land of milk and honey
That you just watched
Being pummeled like putty
Come back to haunt
All things are two
Come back to test
As long as it's new
I'm tired of talk
I'm tired of news
Hear the herd
Herd the herd
Sleep on whatever you do
Do you hear that sound?
The hurdle crashing down
Do you miss that breeze?
That's where our mother lived
Would you tell her now
The worth of tiny things?
That gather round
Untie an end that's sealed
That's sealed
In the vast space it's always sealed
We won't see
All the debris we're certain to leave
Do you hear that sound?
Do you hear that sound?
Do you hear that sound?
Do you hear that sound?
The hurdle crashing down
Do you miss that breeze?
That's why our mother believed
Believed
Would you tell her now?
Would you tell her now?
What would she say?
The words of tiny things
Sell the stars, two by two
Just like sheep with a sail behind you
On and on
On and on, when will it stop?
