Heart To Heal

I have got a heart to heal
I carried it beyond the hill
And over every farm and field I strode
It did know another once
And flew like birds of outer banks
When bound unto that sounder heart’s abode
I have got a heart to heal I moan
I have got a heart to heal I know
I was in the ever greens
Beyond the birch and jimson weed
When the breeze blew a seedling and a kite
And now I’m in a strange hotel
I’m hearing voices through the wall
Rising from the poisoned well tonight
I have got a heart to heal I moan
I have got a heart to heal I know
On a west-end crested butte
Fell a canary and a boot
A lute, a fruited prairie and a stone
You you have and iron will
Rings of gold and nerves of steel
What key’ll deal the card or crack the code
To mend my heart to heal
And send it home?
