A Child’s Question, August Lyrics
[Verse 1: PJ Harvey]
Starling swarms will soon be lorn
Rooks tell stories across the corn
Goocoo soon will 'es leave make
Swifts abandon autumn's ache
[Chorus: PJ Harvey & Ben Whishaw]
What says dunnock, drush, or dove?
"Love Me Tender", tender love
[Verse 2: PJ Harvey]

Grief unknits my ravelled sleeve
Death of summer, death of play

[Chorus: PJ Harvey & Ben Whishaw]
Help me dunnock, drush, and dove
"Love Mе Tender", tendеr love
Help me dunnock, drush, and dove
"Love Me Tender", tender love
