Harvest Lyrics by Rufus Wainwright

Northern Stars

0

[Verse 1: Andrew Bird]
Did I see you down in a young girl's town
With your mother in so much pain?
I was almost there at the top of the stairs
With her screamin' in the rain
[Chorus: Andrew Bird and Chris Stills]
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
[Verse 2: Rufus Wainwright]
Did I see you walking with the boys?
Though it was not hand in hand
And was some black face in a lonely place
One you could understand?
[Chorus: Andrew Bird, Chris Stills, and Rufus Wainwright]
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man
[Verse 3: Rufus Wainwright, Rufus Wainwright and Chris Stills]
Will I see you give more than I can take?
Will I only harvest some?
As the days fly past, will we lose our grasp?
Or fuse it in the sun?
[Chorus: Andrew Bird, Andrew Bird, Chris Stills, and Rufus Wainwright,& Chris Stills and Rufus Wainwright]
Did she wake you up to tell you that
It was only a change of plan?
Dream up, dream up, let me fill your cup
With the promise of a man (Promise of a man)
With the promise of a man (Promise of a man)
With the promise of a man (Promise of a man)
