1
Black flies on the windowsill
2
That we are
3
That we are
4
That we are to know
5
Winter stole summer's thrill
6
And the river's cracked and cold
7
See the sky is no man's land
8
A darkened plume to stay
9
Hope here needs a humble hand
10
Not a fox found in your place
11
No man is an island, this I know
12
But can't you see?
13
Maybe you were the ocean when I was just a stone
14
Black flies on the windowsill
15
That we are
16
That we are
17
That we are to hold
18
Comfort came against my will
19
And every story must grow old
20
Still I'll be a traveler
21
A gypsy's reins to face
22
But the road is wearier
23
With that fool found in your place
24
No man is an island, this I know
25
But can't you see?
26
Maybe you were the ocean when I was just a stone
27
No man is an island, this I know
28
But can't you see?
29
Maybe you were the ocean when I was just a stone
30
So here we are
31
And I don't wanna beg your pardon
32
And I don't wanna ask you why
33
But if I was to go my own way
34
Would I have to pass you by?
35
And I don't wanna beg your pardon
36
And I don't wanna ask you why
37
But if I was to go my own way
38
Would I have to pass you by?
