The Wind Carries Our Secrets

from Shadow Line Warnings by Bill White

/

lyrics

chorus
pieces of me
pieces of you
the wind carries our secrets
the rain buried the clues

as i counted the streets i knew not
whether i was in boston or seattle
or what time my train would be leaving
and if in fact had the fare

as i arrived at a bridge i could not cross
during the daylight hours
because the ships passing beneath it
were taller than the trees

repeat chorus

as i wandered through the rooms of my mother's house
my dear mother, so long time departed
sinatra still sang on the radio
and the pans in the kitchen clattered

repeat chorus
