Original lyrics
LOST DOVE Noah sent me out over the open sea Please wind come, wind please lift me Magnetism in my cells is guiding me The thrust of his rising arms fades gradually abandoned on the open sea abandoned on the open sea abandoned Noah sent me out over the open sea My little bones bounds for logic's last boundary Peace of mind blinded by his need to fly Unknowable as tomorrows food or light The ocean was fluorescent as I waited in his hand enveloped in the energy of a distracted man abandoned on the open sea abandoned on the open sea abandoned Noah sent me out over the open sea Between hard wired dung beetles buried and the high jet stream Before the first fresh tides cycle was complete His instinct and chance memory knew it would recede Directionless and starving guided by debris Extinct wings of flightless birds, my gravity And my cascading season dreams and my thinking sherpas hauling every yesterday behind me in the direction of morning and the first dry mountain tip I see abandoned on the open sea abandoned on the open sea abandoned Noah sent me out over the open sea Please wind come, wind please return my White wings and a two chambered heart full of beats and an olive branch picked up by chance he took from me Starlight on the water is reflected back to the starry sea With a picture the new world and the l shadow of me Please wind come, wind please lift me Please wind come, wind please lift me
