lyrics

WHO OWNS THE TWILIGHT

Who owns the twilight
At the first wick on the lamp
& who will sing a rook song
Low & melancholic
O starling in flight
Here comes the night
Too dark for your eyes
Safe harbour must you find
The sound of a nightjar
De-tunes my guitar
I can't place an owl cry
Hard though I try
Maybe my capo will
Allow me to mimic
Pull the notes right in
Until there's nothing in it
O curlew sing a note I know
& I will play the mournful morning slowly
& corncrake too
I share the night with you
