1
Turtle dove you wake me with a melancholy cry
2
as the sun streaks the sky and the dawn defeats the night
3
do you try to wake me from my sleep
4
to open the windows and hear you weep?
5
Do you sit there, watching, as I lay my head to rest?
6
at night when my sadness tries to confess
7
is it hung above me as I dream?
8
oh turtle dove, I am not what I seem
9
ooooo
10
oh turtle dove, I am not what I seem
11
Why don't you preen your feathers and fly into the light?
12
Oh, I would fall like Icharus, despairing of my plight
13
The soles of my feet are heavy on the ground
14
But when I close my eyes I am heaven bound
15
oooooo
16
when I close my eyes I am heaven bound
17
Turtle dove, tell me, what more do you see?
18
Is anyone else at all like me?
19
Do others fail do they fall, do they fly
20
To find fields of plenty, And peace of mind
21
ooooooo
22
To find fields of plenty, And peace of mind
