  • Verse 1
    She's 
    a mollusk, 

    A seamstress, 

    princess, 

    A priestess, 

    negress, 

    She 
    knows 
    her 
    position 

    Verse 2
    She's 
    swallow, 

    A willow, 

    cello, 

    A pillow, 

    A bow 

    Verse 3
    And also 
    physician 

    She 
    takes 
    your eyes 

    And mends 
    your 
    head 

    She draws 
    the 
    wine 

    And 
    breaks 
    the bread 

    She 
    has 
    no 
    lies 
    to tell 
    you 

    And 
    no truths 
    to sell 
    you 

    She's 
    a girl, 

    She's 
    almost 
    a woman 

    Verse 4
    And 
    zero 
    she 
    flies 
    as 
    the morning 
    sigh

    Spreads 
    her 
    wings 
    like 
    a seagull 

    From 
    the 
    mountain 
    he watches 
    her, 

    Biding 
    his time 

    But 
    his 
    eyes 
    are the 
    eyes 

    of 
    an 
    eagle 

    Verse 5

    He's a 
    hawthorn, 

    A raven, 

    scarecrow, 

    A haven 

    For 
    moon-blessed 
    thought 

    thought 
    and 
    opinion 

    He 
    will laugh 
    like 
    the fountains, 

    The 
    bones 
    of 
    the mountains 

    Lie 
    deep 
    in 
    his forest 
    religion 

    Verse 6
    You will call 
    his 
    name 
    when 
    evening 
    falls 

    And 
    the ground 
    sets 
    hard 

    and the night 
    wind 
    calls 

    You will 
    feed 
    him 
    and 
    heed 
    him, 

    At 
    times 
    you will 
    need 
    him 

    Say 
    you were 
    almost 
    his 
    wo
    man 

    Verse 7
    And 
    zero 
    she 
    flies 
    as 
    the morning 
    sigh

    Spreads 
    her wings 
    like 
    a seagull 

    From 
    the mountain 
    he watches 
    her, 

    Biding 
    his time 

    But his 
    eyes 
    are 
    the eyes 

    of an 
    eagle 


    In the 
    shuddering 
    mad 
    red 

    blood-let 
    sunset 

    sunset 

    A tired 
    man 
    is 
    leaving 
    his 
    cover 

    And the soft 
    eyes 
    of zero 

    Are 
    cut 
    by 
    the sounds 

    Of the 
    vanishing 
    feet 
    of 
    her 
    lover 

    Verse 8
    And 
    the door 
    slams 
    shut 

    And 
    the air 
    grows 
    tight 

    And 
    her throat 
    is 
    gripped 

    By 
    the hands 
    of night 

    And 
    all 
    that 
    is left 

    Is 
    the clock 
    on the shelf 

    As 
    it ticks 
    one 
    day 
    into 
    another 

    Verse 9
    And 
    zero 
    she 
    sighs 
    as 
    the 
    morning 
    dies 

    With 
    the 
    broken 
    wings 
    of 
    a seagull 

    From 
    the mountain 
    he 
    watches 
    her, 

    sensing 
    his 
    time 

    But his 
    eyes 
    are the 
    eyes 
    of 
    an 
    eagle 

    At 
    the pall 
    of 
    the day 

    the man 
    of 
    the mountain 

    Is 
    nearing 
    the 
    end 
    of 
    his 
    travel 

    And 
    the fence 
    is 
    down 

    On the 
    westland 
    bounds 

    And a footfall 
    pounds 
    in the gravel 

    Verse 10
    Comes 
    knock 
    three 
    times 

    And the 
    air 
    grows 
    still 

    As he steps 
    inside 
    from 

    the 
    sudden 
    chill 

    And the 
    moment 
    is 
    caught 

    in 
    the net 
    of 
    the night 

    For 
    the com
    ing 
    of 
    dawn 
    to 
    un
    ravel 

    Verse 11
    And 
    zero 
    she 
    flies 
    as 
    the morning 
    sigh

    Spreads 
    her 
    wings 
    like 
    a seagull 

    From 
    the 
    mountain 
    he's 
    coming, 

    Judging 
    his time 

    And 
    his 
    eyes 
    are the 
    eyes 
    of 
    an 
    eagle 

    Oh 
    Verse 12
    zero 
    she 
    flies 
    as 
    the morn
    ing 
    dies 

    Spreads 
    her wings 
    like 
    a seagull 

    From 
    her 
    window 
    he watches 
    her, 

    man 
    in his 
    time 

    But 
    his eyes 
    are 
    the eye
    of an 
    eagle

      Best Tuning App Ever

      MaddProfessor

      "

      I’ve downloaded many tuning apps before and this one is by far the best. Easy to use, super user-friendly, and they have a bunch of fun different chords and songs to help you learn new music. I highly recommend.

      Well-Designed App

      I mostly use this for tuning my guitar, which this app makes ridiculously easy. It also has a large selection of songs to play along to and it helps show you which chords to play as well how to make the shapes with your fingers.

      Got me back into playing

      Tuliketsune

      "

      I got this app to tune an old guitar, and noticed it has a feature that autoscrolls as I play chords to famous songs. For some reason, this was a lot more motivating for me than any other way of practicing guitar. Now I'm actually practicing and remembering the names of chords 🙂

      This is the best guitar tuner ever.

      It tunes your guitar accurately so you can get the best sound. I like all the other little games as well because they teach you how to play different chords and you can learn to identify the chords by listening to them and it is all offline.
