From the recording Little Dove
Lyrics
Little Dove
Listen for the light in the darkness
Sit and wait long enough
Look out for the song in the silence
Don’t it sound like a little dove
Whispering a holy promise
Written on its little wings
Sitting somewhere just above us
Up there where the sacred sings
Watch it break the tree line
Headed straight for the clouds
Don’t you want to see it fly
Before you shoot that little dove down
When you look at the long list of reasons
Why what you wanna do can’t be done
You put that little heart that’s made for dreaming
In the scope of the dream hunter’s gun
Watch it break the tree line
Headed straight for the clouds
Don’t you want to see it fly
Before you shoot that little dove down
Falling from the blue sky
Headed straight for the ground
No you’re never gonna see it fly
Once you shoot that little dove down
Listen for the light in the darkness
Sit and wait long enough
Look out for the song in the silence
Don’t it sound like a little dove
