Ivory-Billed

I heard you singing in the long leaf pines
Louisiana 1945
Lightning strikes across a southern sky
Leaving scars in the old growth tonight

Ivory billed say you're not gone
Leave me a trail sing me a song
Wild in the wild I will follow along
Is there a world where you still belong

A river delta mixed with ocean tides
The alligator sits and opens wide
The only photograph is black and white
Wings spread open for the last time

Ivory billed say you're not gone
Leave me a trail sing me a song
Wild in the wild I will follow along
Is there a world where you still belong

They said your song set off the wildness
Echoes of the past sung by cold stars
Will I find you in the hollowed cypress
Along the river's edge where I imagine you are

They said your song set off the wildness
Echoes of the past sung by cold stars
Will I find you in the hollowed cypress
Along the river's edge where I imagine you are
