David Drake - Shooting Arrows at the Sun Lyrics

Was that a voice
From above
Or just a bird outside my window

It sang, of a song
That everything was falling down

The whole town was so distressed
Like a deserted girl in her favorite dress

Oh harmony, could not be found
Like the patterns on her gown

Did they all turn and run
Shooting arrows at the sun
Watch it melting from afar
A battle of words with a star

The next day I walked the course
With my only friend, a sly boots horse

We found a drinking hole
That was screaming out like a boundless soul

How could you cause this horrible mess?
Destroy your bed in this perfect nest

Oh woe is me, I bet you said
Before everything turned red

Did they all turn and run
Shooting arrows at the sun
Watch it crumbling from afar
A battle of might with a star

Arrows
Shooting arrows
Stop shooting arrows at the sun

Arrows
Shooting arrows
Stop shooting arrows at the sun

Arrows
Shooting arrows
Stop shooting arrows at the sun

Arrows
Shooting arrows
Stop shooting arrows at the sun
