Songs to Aging Children Come — текст песни (Joni Mitchell)

Through the windless wells of wonder

By the throbbing light machine

In a tea leaf trance or under

Dont they hear the melodies

In the chiming and the clicking

And the laughing harmonies

Some come dark and strange like dying

Crows and ravens whistling

Lines of weeping, strings of crying

So much said in listening



Songs to aging children come

Aging children, I am one

Perfumed rhapsodies to me



Songs to aging children came
