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



You can look outside your window



He doesn't have to know



We can talk awhile baby



We can take it nice and slow



All your life is such a shame shame shame



All your love is just a dream dream dream



Are you happy when 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 we've gone



All your life is such a shame, shame, shame



All your love is just a dream, dream, dream



Well, I dreamt I saw you walking up a hillside in the snow



Casting shadows on the 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



When you open up your wings to speak



I wish you'd let me in



All your life is such a shame, shame, shame



All your love is just a dream, dream, dream



Open up your eyes



You can see the flames of your wasted life



You should be ashamed



You don't want to waste your life



I walk along these hillsides



In the summer 'neath the sunshine



I am feathered by the moonlight falling down on me



Change, change, change
