The black paper between a mirror breaks my heart The moon frayed through dark velvet lightly apart Steal softly through sunshine, steal softly thru snow The wild goose flies from winter Breaks my heart that I can't go, energy flies through a field And the sun softly melts a nothing wheel Steal softly through sunshine, steal softly thru snow The black paper between a mirror Breaks my heart that I can't go
The swan their feathers don't grow, they're spun They live two hundred years of love, they're one Breaks my heart to see them cross the sun Grain grows rainbows up straw hill Breaks my heart to see the highway cross the hills Man lived a million years and still he k**s The black paper between a mirror Breaks my heart that I can't go Steal softly through sunshine, steal softly thru snow
