Earthbound (Starblind) Lyrics & Tabs by David Sylvian & Robert Fripp
Earthbound (Starblind)
guitar chords lyrics
Like a black crow standing
On a sea of shells
She's blessed by magic
And the sound of liberty's bells
I'll raise the curfew
And sit by her door
But she's been through this war before
Out in the snow fields
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 (believe in) me soon
She's giving me questions
And howls to the moon
She's gonna be leaving (believe in) me soon
She's giving me questions
And quizzical 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
Down in the basement
Among her things
I opened her boxes
And found all her rings
I offered her money
She said "They're not for sale"
She guards her secrets well
Somebody saw her
Down on the beach
I followed her footsteps
But they ended at the sea
Still, when she found out
She goes and raises hell
She guards her secrets well
Each face is her mirror
Reflecting her own
She squanders affection
And rarely goes home alone
But I wouldn't ask for anything
If only she'd tell me it's through
She guards her secrets too
Like a black crow standing
On a sea of shells
She's blessed by magic
And the sound of liberty's bells
I'll raise the curfew
And sit by her door
She's been through this war before
