C G6 My mind may drift from the walls of my skin C G6 But I will not wander too far C G6 For those who are pulled by the ivory sun C G6 Know that home is a labor of fire Am G6 And I may have nursed their honey-bright wounds C G6 Am And cradled their rhythms to rest C G6 But I am no dreamer C G6 Am I could not keep my hands clean C G6 So I will not grieve those bent to receive C G6 Seeds that could never be sown C G6 And I will not lust those courtesies past C G6 They have flickered but not chosen me Am G6 And when they march by in their motherly smiles C G6 Am Swaying their motherly hips C G6 I cannot follow C G6 Am I cannot keep their pace C G6 Am G6

C G6 Time has a way of stealing our breath C G6 And milking the light from our pores C G6 And many will fill their oak barrel wombs C G6 With patience instead of desire Am G6 One cannot curse a crow for her course C G6 Am Or choose where her feathers may fall C G6 I am no swallow C G6 I am no spring bird C G6 C G6 C
