The Fox

The Fox - Niki & The Dove

Whenever she's weary she climbs up hill

And crosses a dark trail

And there she finds the fox

In the wooden glade

She lies by a rock and she's red

She smells of violets and picea

She flicks her ears as I whisper

I've grown a handsome tall tree mother

And I want to bear a fruit for you

And I've carried your fears and your hopes father

It's so heavy on my back oh you should know

Catch some sleep

I wanna find the eagle's nest

Oh take me with you (Oh oh )

And I've been waiting a lifetime for this

And I'm ready (Oh oh )

It doesn't leave me I've been up all night

They call me crazy (Ooh ooh )

But I wanna see what the sky looks like

From your view (Oh oh )

But I saw your face carved in clay

And I saw (she saw) it outlined against

A purple sky it goes loud and deep in me

Loud and deep

My home is on that cliff

I wanna find the eagle's nest

Oh take me with you (Oh oh )

I've been waiting a lifetime for this

And I'm ready (Oh oh )

Born of a wanderer I wandered all my life

They never knew me

I wanna see what the sky looks like

From your view (Oh oh )

I've grown a handsome tall tree mother

And I want to bear a fruit for you

And I've carried your fears

And your hopes father

I'll conquer them for me and you

I've grown a handsome tall tree mother

And I want to bear a fruit for you

And I've carried your fears

And your hopes father

I will conquer them for me and you
