Harbinger

*************************************************

Oh come on now - you've gotta be kidding me
The kid in me is lost and hurt
A rag doll on the ground

And don't you know - that's how it goes
Kicked when your down

I dwell in the past way too much
(it's over now...it's over now...)

Oh don't you know - it's only an evil wind
That blows before the winter's end
A harbinger* of crows

And don't you know - that's how it grows
Up from the ground

I dwell in the past way too much
(it's over now...it's over now...)
