Feathers Bones & Shells

The sound of my heart is ancient and true And it sings like a thousand bells For sorrow and grace, for my love of you The feathers, the bones and the shells I try to believe wherever you are There's a sky and a sea of blue And someone you trust whose sheltering arms Have finally comforted you The touch of your hand still lives in my skin While a shadow I can't embrace Wherever it ends is where it begins Without ever leaving a trace So you live in me and I live in you And the rest is for love to tell That nothing escapes the wind blowing through The feathers, the bones and the shells
