Testo Broken Blue

Catch it when it comes

Put it in your pocket

Nothing 'til it's gone

Kept but could not lock it

Now all at once it's broken blue, oh


Welcome it when it comes home

Cook it lots of stews

Feed it feasts, red wine, violets, rouge

All the things you used to do

Tell the neighbors you've come home

Really, it's true
Oh, the wild parade

That we've planned for you

There'll be fireworks and choirs

But you must be tired

You spread the finest bed

Tuck it in, say:

Tomorrow's gonna be a big day

Then watch it drift away


And all at once it's broken blue, oh

And all at once it's broken blue, oh


It's in an empty room


Fate lies dusting off tables

Whispering, did you hear that?

Did you hear that?

Someone's singing in the backyard

Just wind blowing through

Just wind blowing through
