The Wailin' Jennys - Away but Never Gone lyrics

The moon's on its way to its nightly shift, the frogs fill the creek below. The tall gra** waves a farewell to the day, the wind moans sweet and low. A heron tucks his head in his wing, the fish in the lake float along. The sun sinks from sight: away, but never gone. The dawn brings the dew like a thousand j**els, a nest rustles high on a bough. The blue egg stays warm in the cool of the morn, under a red breast of down. The clouds turn and stretch, the moon checks its wrist and gathers itself with a yawn, And winks to the sun: away, but never gone. *Whistling and humming* All o'er the world, as it turns and it turns, the stars twinkle off and on, And we come and go: away, but never gone.
