The Barley Bird

Miner

Ooke up alone on the forest floor
Over my cold skin, my shadow frozen
Oh brother, my head's so full of holes again
Oh brother, my head is not my own

Then I hear the barley bird, singing soft
Laughing at the blackened night
Saying, 'Sun gonna come, gonna chase your worries
Out from your rosy eyes'
Calls me from the darkness

And I feel like springtime
There's flowers falling in my hair
Sing me some blue skies
Say you'll light my way, my barley bird

But I'm alone as the moment fades
My eyes are open, my vision stolen
Oh mother, I know I'm dreaming wide awake
Oh mother, I've found no sleep for days

I'm on my way
I'm on my way now
