Andrew Bird - Encircle My Love Lyrics

I was born a rake and a rambling boy
Through many strong cities there I've been
I sailed this world, sailed it 'round and 'round
Encircle my love, encircle my love

And at the ends of the Earth, I'll tell you what I found
Sixteen horses and a golden crown
Tip away from the sun, let it rain from above
Encircle my love, encircle my love

Once I longed to say goodbye
It's the leaving brought me peace
To this I cannot lie
Now I'm just a poor boy
So far from home am I
And I just want to hold you
In my arms before I die

And when I'm gone go and bury me deep
Place a marble stone 'neath my head and feet
And on my grave place the wings of a dove
Encircle my love, encircle my love
