Heavy Feathers

June 19, 2007

Straighten up
While I bend your ear, my dear
You teach me lessons with actions
They don’t speak louder than my words

Lighten up
It hasn’t been your year, my dear
Each second is a chance to turn it around
Clocks only have so many of them to give

Back right up
Go on without fear, my dear
Your strength is a commodity
I had it on loan a time or two

Talk it up
Now you’re in the clear, my dear
The weight has been lifted
Didn’t know feathers got so heavy
