On a hillside, counting crows.

i wish i was….

walking up a hillside in the snow,
casting shadows way up on that winter sky as [i] stood there
counting crows.
one for sorrow
two for joy
three for girls and four for boys
five for silver
six for gold and
seven for a secret never to be told……


A Murder of One, Counting Crows

Blue morning, blue morning
Wrapped in strands of fist and bone
Curiosity, Kitten, doesn’t have to mean
You’re on your own
Cuz you can look ouside your window
He doesn’t have to know
We can just talk awhile, baby
We can take it nice and slow
Lets go Lets go

All your life is such a shame
Get Up
All your love is just a dream

Are you happy where you’re sleeping?
Does he keep you safe and warm?
Does he tell you when you’re sorry?
Does he tell you when you’re wrong?
I’ve been watching you for hours
It’s been years since we were born
We were perfect when we started
I’ve been wondering where you’ve gone
What went wrong

All your life is such a shame
Get Up
All your love is just a dream

I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow
Casting shadows way up on that winter sky as you stood there
counting crows
One for sorrow
Two for joy
Three for girls and four for boys
Five for silver
Six for gold and
Seven for a secret never to be told

There’s a bird that nests inside you
Sleeping underneath your skin
i said when you open up your wings to speak
I wish you’d let me in

All your life is such a shame
Get the hell up
All your love is just a dream
Open up your eyes
You can see the flames flames flames
of your wasted life
You should be ashamed
You should be ashamed
You should be ashamed
Dont waste your life
Cuz i dont wanna waste my life
You dont wanna waste your life
I dont wanna waste my life
You dont wanna waste your life
And i dont wanna waste my life
You dont wanna waste your life
I dont wanna waste my life

And i have been to Paris
And i have been to Rome
And i have gone to London
And i am all alone
And i have been to Paris
And i have been to Rome
And i have gone to New York City
And i am all alone
Im all alone
I am all alone
I am

(i’m not. but sometimes i wish i were. but not really. or something.)
