False Alarms
Far across this red horizon
I am walking down the line
I am picking up the pieces
That this storm has left behind
After all the clouds are fallen
I would breach the battered ground
Turn your darkness into light love
Turn your silence into sound
But I can’t cage you in my arms
When my heart is jumping forward
To avoid your false alarms
And you can’t tell me not to stay
When I opened up your window
And I watched you fly away
Have you raised the final anchor
Have you cut the last sail free
Sending off our due redemption
Like a funeral at sea
I will always hear you calling
You’re the sway of falling leaves
Like a bird you’ll spiral onward
And you just know where I’ll be
And I can’t cage you in my arms
When my heart is jumping forward
To avoid your false alarms
And you can’t tell me not to stay
When I opened up your window
And I watched you fly away
And I can’t cage you in my arms
When my heart is jumping forward
To avoid your false alarms
And you can’t tell me not to stay
When I opened up your window
And I watched you fly away
I am closing up my window
Til I see a blue horizon
And the quiet calm of love will fly my way
