Feathers

Standing in line at the post office
A rich man and the poor
Both of them get to wonder
What's it all for?

Waiting for the next tomorrow
Waiting for the dream to come
Whether you lend or borrow
Equal under the sun

Feathers
In the wind
Kept it for a moment
Then swept away again

One man is impatient
One's just keeping warm
Standing in line at the post office
The mind just wanders off

One looks for forgiveness
One looks for some grace
We all may have a place

Where the luck is, you have a castle
Or a blanket for the cold
Love's the only measure
Of the treasure you hold

Feathers
In the wind
Kept it for a moment
Then swept away again

Standing in line at the post office
The rich man alone
The other across the street
In the park he calls home

But underneath this beingness
And the tyranny of time
No matter where you sit
In the grand design

You might look over your shoulder
Searching for someone
The sum of joys and sorrows
Equal under the sun

Where the luck is, you have a castle
Or a blanket for the cold
Love's the only measure
Of the treasure you hold

Love's the only measure
Of the treasure you hold
Love's the only measure
Of the treasure you hold

Feathers
In the wind
Feathers
In the wind
Feathers
In the wind
