The Whale Song Lyrics

Deal me a card I'll take what I get
deal me a sky that's shiny and wet

deal me a field with horses that run
a place to get rest when all work is done
a sound in my ear
the singing of the whales
send me to sleep
with wind in my sails
the moon is a woman I painted at night
to keep me awake till the summer goes by

a dream in the night
with the ones that you love
the firing of rifles
and you'll never wake up

I'll be right here and follow your plan
and trust in the things I don't understand
