I saw two magpies
|
A girl and a boy
|
One for sorrow
|
Two for joy
|
With no salutes
|
I move away
|
And long to face, face ,face
|
Face down fear
|
|
I saw two magpies
|
There was a girl and a boy
|
One for sorrow
|
Two for joy
|
Content to cry
|
No more to lie
|
I move away
|
And lie in truth
|
|
Look two magpies
|
A girl and a boy
|
One for sorrow
|
And two for joy
|
Three for a girl
|
Four for a boy
|
I saw two magpies
|
Two for joy
|
|
Content to cry
|
No more to lie
|
In truth with you
|
To face down fear
|
Content to cry
|
No more to lie
|
No more to lie
|
And face down fear
|
