Osians Lament (I Can See My Heaven) King/King/Gibbard The story of Osian and Nia Ben Aur tells of restlessness and longing and searching for greener pastures. This was a signature song from Dylan' the musical about Dylan Thomas. Turn, turn, turn Like a little bird trapped in a cage Turn, turn, turn For what seems like an eternal age Longing to float on the breeze and fly through the morning sky Needing the freedom, the freedom to fly and to fly and to fly Across the sea Through the mist is the long distant sun Across the sea The clay has just begun I 'm longing to be with my people and sing their simple song Im not a stranger, not an enemy: but I know that I dont belong I can see my heaven But I cant get there See the shore from the other side I can see the bridge that I need to cross Through the mists of the morning tide There's no pain deeper than being alone In a crowd of lonely souls Why cant they hear the questions I ask And answer before life grows cold |
