Hugh Blumenfeld - Sparrowhawk lyrics

The hawk and the sparrow flew up together Though the sparrow was small and the hawk on a tether Wingtip wingtip, feather to feather All in the fall with winter coming on All in the fall with winter coming on He was dark as a blanket of snow She was bright as the lightning's shadow He shook yes, she nodded no All in the fall with winter coming on All in the fall with winter coming on The leaves fell down and the wind blew stiff They had their tumble and they had their tiff And they both sang a love song that started with "If..." All in the fall with winter coming on All in the fall with winter coming on It was breasts and hands and flanks and thighs Everyone around had to shield their eyes And we called in the cops at the sound of their cries All in the fall with winter coming on All in the fall with winter coming on And the sun and the moon hung there in the sky Till no one could tell day from night And the harvest piled up higher than high All in the fall with winter coming on All in the fall with winter coming on Copyright 1995, Hugh Blumenfeld / Hydrogen Jukebox Music
