Day fades to night, crows homeward flight, Across the sky, dark clouds will fly, to where dreams lie. At the edge of the world, blackwinged shadows swirled, stands one old gray tree. One crow tells of the sadness, two bring mirth yet madness, beneath the gray tree. Three crows dream together, four crows tell of birth, five crows laugh forever, Six crows tears fall down on the blacked earth, Seven crows tells of wishes, eight crows bring soft kisses, beneath the gray tree. Nine crows cast no shadow, ten crows fill the sky. Eleven crows cross the meadow, twelve crows touch the stars to the moon they fly. Thirteen crows keep the secret, n'er to be spoken, beneath the gray tree, Across the sky to where your dreams lie. 13 Crows by Witherspoon Lyrics © Lesley-Ann Raven. |
