Spoken For Songtext
von Zero

Spoken for
Since the first new morning of the world began
Spoken for
The slope of the mountain and the lay of the land
Spoken for
The roar of the water on the wide sea sand
Spoken for
The fruit of the valley where I make my stand

I thought I heard a voice whisper in my ear
A voice in the distance but drawing near

Spoken to
But they only hear what they want to hear
Only when
Fighting for their lives does the truth ring clear


Spoken by
The face of a cliff scraping on the sky
Spoken by
The wind on the water as the waves roll high
The wing of an eagle when it′s on the fly
The girl in the window with the laughing eye

Spoken in
The heat of the moment when lamps are low
Spoken in
Dead earnest or in jest or just for show
Spoken in
The lingo of the heart only lovers know
Spoken in
Drops of blood that trickle on the virgin snow

Spoken to
By the white-winged crow in my sleeping ear
Spoken to
The promise of a reckoning day draws near

Spoken for
Defended to the death it wounded me
Spoken for
Every acre by acre from sea to sea

With lines in the sand no one else can see
Awakened by flame in the night to reality
