Crowsfoot

[Chorus] Why is the garden Under the mud The mud that has flowed After the flood The flood that came in Through the deep blue The blue of this sky This summer sky, why [Verse 1] Low is the water The water so cold Cold is the wind The wind that still blows Still for the fallen The fallen of old Old and forgotten Forgotten in rows Oh, why is the water The water so cold Cold is the wind The wind that still blows Still for the fallen The fallen of old Old and forgotten Forgotten in rows [Chorus] Why is the garden Under the snow First snow that's fallen After the crow The crow that has flown in Over the glow The glow of this autumn This autumn sun, low [Break] [Verse 2] Low are the clouds The clouds filled with rain Rain that falls futilely On sickled grain Grain in the bowl A bowl that is stained Stained from the lack Of soap bought with grain Oh, why are the clouds The clouds filled with rain Rain that falls futilely On sickled grain Grain in the bowl A bowl that is stained Stained from the lack Of soap bought with grain [Chorus] Why is the garden Under the snow The snow that has fallen After the crow The crow that did fly off Over the rye The dead and ret rye 'Neath frost-rimmed moon, high [Verse 3] Oh, why is my hunger My hunger so deep Deep and dear hollow Down to my feet My bones are a knockin' Knocking together But why is my hunger Light as a feather Why is my hunger Light as a feather [Break] [Chorus] Why is the garden Under the snow The snow that has fallen After the crow The crow that has flown off At first hint of spring The damp of this spring This spring morning, so cold [Verse 4] Oh, where are my teeth, dear Dearest my eyes My eyes are all hollow And bones sick with flies Yet hear the crow's laughter The summer wind blows He'll see again next year Where the corn grows [Chorus] Why is the garden Under the snow The snow that has fallen After the crow The crow that has flown in Over the glow The glow of this autumn This autumn sun, low
