Three For Silver I Know, I Know Lyrics

I know why the wind howls
I know why the ocean waves
I know my soul is lost
If I swear my soul is saved

I know I felt the damp
Though I could not feel the rain
I know I saw the wound
Though I could not feel the pain

As the guitar frets and the willow weeps
As the twig is bent, so grows the tree
Much to do before I sleep
Shake off the dust
It's time to leave

I know why you call my name
I know that you'll be true
I know that we'll raise hell again
'Cause I know that I need you

I know just where we're going -
The lie is in theinking that it's ever far I know we won't get lost
'Cause there is no way to where we are

A splash of raven's blood in my mother's milk
The darkest words have the nicest lilt
You've got to let your flag unfurl
You need a sailor's legs to walk this crooked world

I know I mustn't fear
I know I'm not alone
I know that every wave must break
When the ocean calls them home

Still I'm all dressed up for a red letter day
Too big for a cradle, won't stay in a grave
Could never say what I have seen
'Cause I have slept through all my dreams
