A knot of sparrows on a summer breeze
Cut like a river through the evergreens
Under safety of a wild northern sky
They came upon a field, a yellow sea
Where black eyed susans and the foxes sleep
All surrounded by blackberry and thyme
Rambling through the hills you should follow the brook
You’ll find us if you look
‘Cause we went up where the gardens grow
Where the fire’s high when we’re feeling low
Settle down easy, breathe in
An evening rain or the morning dew
It’s just a shower of light that’s falling over you
In the valley we’re taking
All the heat of the sun
A pair of ravens calling one, two, three
For lack of home or a conspiracy
Keeping watch over the meadows and mice
Who scurry about and hope that no one sees
Their camouflage beneath the fallen leaves
Captivating — the struggle for life
Rambling through the hills you should follow the brook
You’ll find us if you look
‘Cause we went up where the gardens grow
Where the fire’s high when we’re feeling low
Settle down easy, breathe in
An evening rain or the morning dew
It’s just a shower of light that’s falling over you
In the valley we’re taking
All the heat of the sun
