Things Go Away

From out of eggs came little birds
One of them fell down on our trampoline
With love and bread we tried but couldn't save her
We tried to understand what it could mean

Things go away
Things go away
cnd we'll laugh someday in heaven when the tears get wiped away
cnd they won't return
They won't return
cnd we'll laugh at just how difficult this always was to learn

c boy rides in his daddy's arms
crms that swing like hammers and carry rocks
One day those arms fall softly down beside him
cnd they're folded up into a wooden box

We're on our way, we're on our way
But the dragon is by the road, watching us pass, voracious
We go to the Father of souls, but the dragon is here by the road
