The Falconer Lyrics
[Verse 1]
The falconer is sitting on
His summer sand at dawn
Unlocking flooded silver cages
And with a silvered in her eyes
All the lovely faces
And the lovely silver traces erase

[Verse 2]

Beside his singing silver waves
And his dancing rebel race
That compose ahead of timeless time
A sound inside my candle light
[Chorus]
Father, child
Angels of the night

My candlelight
Father, child
Angels of the night

My candlelight
[Verse 3]
The falconer is sitting on
His summer sand at dawn
Unlocking flooded silver cages
And with a silvered in her eyes
All the lovely faces
And the lovely silver traces erase
My empty pages
