Only Revolutions

from Swingin' At The Wind EP by Andrew Kavanagh

/

lyrics

under a tomb stone sky there’s a fallen cross
next to a black rock that sits in a yard surrounded by trees
and off in the distance a dog’s bark keeps time
while the cold wind whispers through the dried out leaves
and safe in the house a mother tells her child
that our worth corresponds with all the deeds we’ve done
and that scares him to death
so he waits by the window wondering
if heaven’s got a place reserved just for him

Oh, we’ve all been waiting for the right way,
in the right time
to find out what we’re missing
are we just blowing away with the sands of time?
is there something we’re all missing?

Now the yards bathed in light, the boy sits out
upon the rock as he wonders if the trees can really see,
when the sun hits his eyes he squints and speaks:
“oh what a world this could be, if we only tried”
A hawk cries out from over head
to the field mouse below. “soon you’ll be dead”
and so it goes, it goes, it goes
it’s only revolutions, soon we’ll see
that I give to you, you give to me
and on it goes

Oh, I feel like this place is all I have
to take me home.
take me.
