Through Respectful Eyes We See

Starling mimic me The sound of broken dreams I hear you mimic them The Crow, Owl and the Wren. Do you do it to blend in? Starling please mimic me The cry from my heart Starling try to sing My sorrowful sounding din The sounds of a human being Broken on his knees Starling mimic me Show you understand my plea What's that sound you call? You heard me after all? Starling played my sound I stood on solid ground Before Starling flew away Starling asked me to repay Some sound he wanted back Lost love, well perhaps? I mimic the sound he called He turned and looked at me Through respectful eyes we see As starling flew away Somehow some pain eased in me that day I'd thought but somehow knew I'd helped that Starling too.
