I Wonder Lyrics

My soul dines alone in the valley of forgotten men

Every now and then a magpie flies overhead

Every now and then two magpies fly overhead

Now and then one of those magpies drops dead

And I wonder

What the other magpie said

And I wonder

What the other magpie said

I wonder

My weary bones roam unknown

Down the road of the postmodern man

Now and then I hear a hand as it lands upon a kid

Now and then I hear two hands as they land upon a kid

Once in a while one of those hands drops a child dead

And I wonder

What it was the child said

And I wonder

What it was the child said

I wonder

I wonder

I wonder

My love undenounced

Sinks to the bottom of the sea

Every now and then a mermaid swims my way

Every now and then two mermaids swim my way

Now and then one of those mermaids stay

And I wonder

What her merman has to say

And I wonder

What her merman has to say

I wonder

I wonder

I wonder

My heart uncontained

On display for all to see

Every now and then a crow tries to take it for their own

Every now and then two crows try to take my heart from me

Now and then one of those crows succeeds

And I wonder

If the crow knows it's hate he breeds

And I wonder

If the crow knows it's love he needs

I wonder

And I wonder

And I wonder

If the crow knows it's love he needs

I wonder

I wonder

I wonder

I wonder
