Hollow Hills
[Slow chating] [verse 1] Where the hollow hills meet to blacken town She prays for more time with her eyes cast down Skin polished silver by the moon Like the women before her She'll never leave too soon She'll wait til the bells ring in the sun She'll wait til the hollow hills have won [refrain] All of the words that you never found, he spoke them gently to the ground and nothing filled with every thing All of the wishes you never shared He blew them out into empty air Nothing filled with everything [Instrumental] [chorus] Lay down the bells we'll bring the sun When the hills have won When black diamonds fall from up above Lay down my love [verse 2] Now fly catchers are feeding on the wind A cold morning is begging to be let back in The faces in places I He never seen more than he did and now it's light When apples fall in brittle grass like bubbles made of colored glass And the way your hair blows like a flag upon mast [chorus] Lay down the bells we'll bring the sun When the hills have won When black diamonds fall from up above Lay down my love [verse 3] That day we were walking through the clover In bed we were looking and indigo sky [refrain] All of the words that you never found, he spoke them gently to the ground and nothing filled with every thing All of the wishes you never shared He blew them out into empty air Nothing filled with everything [verse 4] The way the bodies swayed when he came through The way the sunshine stands still on his skin The way the fields whisper he came home The days farther prayed for all that i knew Turned to stone
