Away But Never Gone Lyrics

The moon's on its way
To it's nightly shift
The frogs fill the crick alone

The tall grass waves
A farewell to the day
The wind blows sweet and low

The heron tucks
His head in his wing
The fish in the lack float alone

The sun sinks from sight
Away, but never gone

The dawn brings the dew
Like a thousand jewels
The nest rustles high on a bough

The blue egg stays warm
In the cool of the morn
Under a red breast of down

The clouds turn and stretch
The moon sheds its rest
And gathers itself with a yawn

It waits for the sun
Away, but never gone

And all 'round the world
As it turns and it turns
The stars twinkle low in the dawn

We come and go
Away, but never gone
