Trespasses lyrics

Life is designed

with unfinished lines

that another sings

Each story unfolds

like it was gold

upon a ragged wing

The bold and the fair

suffer their share

He whispered to his kin:

All of my debts

left with regrets

I'm sorry for everything

Trespasses stretch like broken fences,

winding as they may

Trespasses stretch like broken fences,

hope to mend them one day

And she pinned back her hair

shouldered with care

the burdens that were his

Mending the coat

that hung on the post

in heart remembering

Trespasses stretch like broken fences,

winding as they may

Trespasses stretch like broken fences,

hope to mend them one day

And her time was to come

called to her son

this your song to sing

All of our debts

wove with regrets

upon a golden string

And he found the old coat

hung on a post

like a ragged wing

And took as his own

the sewn and unsown

joyfully whistling
