Feathers And Bones

[Verse 1]
Feathers and bones, put on these wings
Practice flying while I'm here to hold you
Some day you will navigate the dark skies on your own
And you will need these feathers and bones

[Verse 2]
Feathers and bones, mine are so worn
But still have many miles to travel
My mother and her mother and grandmother before
Have all relied on feathers and bones

[Bridge]
There's a man over therе who wants to talk to you
And he's been taking hold of the clothes you wеar
So you better disguise yourself, disguise your body
And hope that they believe you
Oh, can't you see the sun rise
After such a long night

[Verse 3]
Feathers and bones, when it's time
Pass on what I've shown you
So you can teach your daughter she will never fly alone
She has our feathers and bones
