Radio Paradise (mobile)

And under the boughs unbowed
All clothed in a snowy shroud
She had no heart so hardened
All under the boughs unbowed
Each feather, it fell from skin
Till threadbare as she grew thin
How were my eyes so blinded?
Each feather, it fell from skin
And I will hang my head, hang my head low
And I will hang my head, hang my head low
A gray sky, a bitter sting
A rain cloud, a crane on wing
All out beyond horizon
A gray sky, a bitter sting
And I will hang my head, hang my head low
And I will hang my head, hang my head low
And I will hang my head, hang my head low
And I will hang my head, hang my head low
And I will hang my head, hang my head low
And I will hang my head, hang my head low, low, low

horseplayer Mar 17, 2011 - 09:18	Is he going to hang his head low? I mean, he only says it about 842 times, so I'm not sure. Good song, though. [ Reply ]

Laurelia Feb 18, 2011 - 12:34	Let's make it 3 in an hour! I'm getting revved up to see them in concert tonight. I don't find Colin Meloy's voice annoying, as some do, in fact I quite like it, but I think he actually sounds better in person. What seems grandiose to some is the right size in a concert. As he's sung, he's "meant for the stage." [ Reply ]

You can tell, listening to this song, especially the end, that the story continues... check out the full album. You'll thank me. It tells a story based on an old Japanese tale according to Wikipedia. I wonder, though, why The Crane Wife #3 starts the album while The Crane Wife #1 and 2 come much later. [ Reply ]
