Velvet Belly - Oystercatcher lyrics

music : Velvet Belly lyrics: Dag Olsvik The far away calls of a seabird somewhere Reach me here through a desert of rooms Rousing memories of me I have come here to steal all that you try to conceal I have come here to steal things that yearn to be real Your pageant of hopes is displayed upon shelves Finds a place among trinkets and thoughts And emotions unemployed I have come here to steal all that you try to conceal I have come here to steal things that yearn to be real And now as I'm watching these dry bones of dreams Dyed with gold in the afternoon sun Now my fingers lose their feel I have come here to steal all that you try to conceal I have come here to steal things that yearn to be real From afar there's a sound haunting me until I hear Wings that leave the ground
