Raven

[Verse 1]
Saw you in the evening light
You kept on walking through the night
My eyes upon the path ahead
Metronome within my chest
You worked your fingers to the bone
A job to pay your father's loan
I said "I've heard you could not see
Till you passed beyond the tree"

[Chorus]
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?

[Verse 2]
You brought the raven as a gift
The tongues so sharp, the wings so sweet
The secret that it held so dear
But now it whispers in my ear
My courage grew, it took the cage
Its shadow [?] and stole my gaze
And when it perched upon my hand
A darkness grew so it began

[Chorus]
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?

[Verse 3]
You said for me to come that night
To put our twisted feelings right
There was no you, there was no light
You realised I had changed, you were no lie

[Chorus]
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
Raven, raven, didn't I dream you were there?
