Sylvia

Sylvia, I saw your bird upon my wall

Every morning comes and goes away

Flies away it goes and walks you home

But truly, I see your face every fall

Early in the morning as the wind blows

Bright as day a thought is carried away

When I wonder

Maybe I could take you far beyond the clouds

Help your feet to raise you to a higher ground

Even when this cold wind's blowing in

Even when I don't know where to begin

Maybe I could try it, somehow I could try it

And make a start right where you saw the end

Even though I just can't turn this road around

I'd take you up the hills, take you off the ground

And then we would be waiting for the sunset

And then we'll be waiting for the sunset

Mmm, mmm

Mmm, mmm

So take me where you roam

And leave me where you lay

This house could be a home

Now count the days

I'll see you when the snow

Has cleared out with the rain

Between us only cold fading away

Now I can feel the sun, now

You'll be coming home, now

We'll be moving on, now

Might not know where to begin

But it's a hope I'll try to win

A dream to be revealed and I'll sing

To you when you're not here

I'll sing you to your sleep

After all you'll know

This was real
