Mourning Dove Songtext
von Ali Holder

I wanna be your morning dove
I wanna sing ′til the stars come up
We are summers on the prairie
We are winters on the mountaintop
We are the loveliest of feathers
Stitched together in this flock
I'll be your morning dove
And I will sing until the stars come up


I wanna kiss your lonesome brow
I wanna lay your burden down
And it is the heat of the evening
From the fire on the steps
And it is the chill of the morning
Knowing I ain′t ever coming back
I'll be your morning dove
But I ain't ever coming back

I wanna hold your calloused hand
I wanna show you that you′re my man
And it is the change of the seasons
And the time we can′t get back
And it is the saddest of feelings
Knowing that nothing ever lasts
I'll be your morning dove
But baby, nothing ever lasts

I wanna be your morning dove
