Family Songtext
von Dar Williams
Family Songtext
Can you fix this; it′s a broken heart
It was fine, but it just fell apart
It was mine but now I give it to you
Cause you can fix it, you know what to do
Let your love cover me
Like a pair of angel wings
You are my family
You are my family
We stood outside in the summer rain
Different people with a common pain
A simple box in that hard red clay
Is where we left him to always remain
Let your love cover me
Like a pair of angel wings
You are my family
You are my family
A child who played with the moon and stars
Waves a snatch of hay in a common barn
In the lonely house of Adam's fall
Lies a child, he′s just a child that's all
Crying'
Let your love cover me
Like a pair of angel wings
You are my family
You are my family
You are my family
You are my family
It was fine, but it just fell apart
It was mine but now I give it to you
Cause you can fix it, you know what to do
Let your love cover me
Like a pair of angel wings
You are my family
You are my family
We stood outside in the summer rain
Different people with a common pain
A simple box in that hard red clay
Is where we left him to always remain
Let your love cover me
Like a pair of angel wings
You are my family
You are my family
A child who played with the moon and stars
Waves a snatch of hay in a common barn
In the lonely house of Adam's fall
Lies a child, he′s just a child that's all
Crying'
Let your love cover me
Like a pair of angel wings
You are my family
You are my family
You are my family
You are my family
