Light as a Feather - Lyrics - Geoff Baker

The sky was above The earth was below We and the morning had nowhere to go The earth was below The sky was above And I could still believe in love We gathered heather Light as a feather And dark as the face of the sea And a bed beneath the trees You headed east The sun fell west And only I knew why you left The sun fell west And you headed east And I learned how the love can leave I gathered heather Wondering whether We'd see it to light any more And I laid it at your door All the leaves were gold When you came back Soft over in pine to a town dressed black When you came back All the leaves were gold So does all love die before it grows old I gathered heather Heavy as leather And light as the mouth of a cave And I laid it on your grave
