Cirrus Cloud

lyrics

I am the arrow
I am the hand upon the bow
Aimed high at a cirrus cloud
Pull back the string and I feel myself let go

I think I’m always coming back
I can’t leave things where I ought to
But I won’t bother anymore
I put my faith in an open door

Think I met you at the dawn
My heart did flips when I saw you
But I know that you’ll be gone
There’s nothing mine I can keep for long

I am the arrow
I am the hand upon the bow
Aimed high at a cirrus cloud
Pull back the string and I feel myself let go

Will you let me show
You a place I know
With every needle and pin
They’re gonna let us in

Tell me something that is true
I can’t find anything I love
More than the thought of shaking loose
Let’s lift our love to the air and soar

I am the arrow
I am the hand upon the bow
Aimed high at a cirrus cloud
Pull back the string and I feel myself let go
