Stanley Park (Recorded at Spotify Studios NYC)
See that gull on the old sea wall
Some birds fly and others fall
I sleep to the beating of their wings
The wind sings, the wind sings
See that babe at her mother's breast
If I could, I'd take my rest
Back in the belly from where I came
Nobody knows my name, knows my name
Half-asleep in a bowl of gruel
No one told me life was cruel
My home is in this valley now
But it's burning down, it's burning down
If I find the fire escape
I'll break the glass and put on my cape
I'll pretend I'm Superman
Where are my friends? Where are my friends?
I'm a poor wayfarer
I got no one to dry my eyes
Time to lay this body down
In the frozen ground, in the frozen ground
When I die, Lord, bring me back
As a snow-white gull, I'll make my tracks
On the sandy beach of the English Bay
Then I'll fly away, I'll fly away
Some birds fly and others fall
I sleep to the beating of their wings
The wind sings, the wind sings
See that babe at her mother's breast
If I could, I'd take my rest
Back in the belly from where I came
Nobody knows my name, knows my name
Half-asleep in a bowl of gruel
No one told me life was cruel
My home is in this valley now
But it's burning down, it's burning down
If I find the fire escape
I'll break the glass and put on my cape
I'll pretend I'm Superman
Where are my friends? Where are my friends?
I'm a poor wayfarer
I got no one to dry my eyes
Time to lay this body down
In the frozen ground, in the frozen ground
When I die, Lord, bring me back
As a snow-white gull, I'll make my tracks
On the sandy beach of the English Bay
Then I'll fly away, I'll fly away
