Counting Crows



When I think of heaven
Deliver me in a black-winged bird
I think of flying down into a sea of pins and feathers
And all other instruments of faith and sex and God
In the belly of a black-winged bird...


One for Sorrow


Two for Joy


Three for Girls



Four for Boys



Five for Silver


Six for Gold


Seven for a Secret Never to Be Told

There's a bird that nests inside you
Sleeping underneath your skin
When you open up your wings to speak
I wish you'd let me in

Lyrics from Counting Crows, August and Everything After
