When you mend the patches of my clothin' You know every thread goes through my heart Guessin' that the river's gonna dry up Well, I said that's not the reason why we bard Lookin' 'round the corner where I left you Wonderin' whatever led me there Knowin' that a quiet, unconscious feeling Could be bought to drown a memory anywhere She said, "I don't want your medicine And I don't need the sparrow in my heart" When I'm covered by the thunder I get rid of all your breath deep in my lungs Splayed in the wind apart And when I touch the ceiling on a spring day Wishin' it could heed up every crow So that they could lift me by my shoulders Take me from this frozen lake and let you know Just that I want to be your medicine I want to feed the sparrow in your heart When I'm covered by the thunder I'll get rid of all my breath deep in our lungs Splayed in the wind apart Hell I'm still standing 'round the corner where I left you Diggin' up a quite sufficient track Never know when you're behind that angle With a tranquilizer gun in your sweet pair Oh, I want to be your medicine I want to feed the sparrow in your heart When we're covered by the thunder We'd become just one and feel the lightnings shard Splayed in the wind apart
