Warning Dove

All your words falling
From you like a waterfall
Oh, if only you could
Convince me they make sense at all
Late that night when nothing felt right
Everything was going wrong
Flat on your back with your head on the tracks
I told you all my hope was gone

And now you pray for your mother
Kiss your little brother
Please don’t go, in the morning
I could be your warning dove

Love your friends
But your friends aren’t always on your side
I’ll make amends
But sometimes it’s best just to say goodbye
I saw you today and my words fell away
I swore that you were someplace else
Flat on your back with your head on the tracks
Your eyes were like the deepest wells

And now you pray for your mother
Kiss your little brother
Please don’t go, in the morning
I could be your warning dove

And now you pray for your mother
Kiss your little brother
Please don’t go, in the morning
I could be your warning dove
