The Redwing - Feist

Lyrics by：Feist

Composed by：Feist

Came along the Winter

And killed off all my language

The shadows got long on the walk

Across the ice on the lake

The future of December

Is memories of last Summer

And I stoke it like a wood stove

I'm always wanting more

The endless weight of my life

Can be lifted up like wings

The underneath of my life

An effortlessness in it sings

I live up to what I sing to

As if I'm telling the truth

I imagine who is listening

And it's not all of you that I mean

La la la la in the morning

When the blinds are opened

That's when I see the redwing

And the redwing sees me too

The endless weight of our lives

Can be lifted up like wings

The underneath of our lives

An effortlessness in it sings

California Winter

It brought me back my language

Then once I'd spoken the truth

That's when the redwing landed

And she sang la la la la la la
