Sold Out
lyrics
Flight of the sparrow sparkle of the jewel as she soars
What else were we to do savoring our spoils of war
I deserve the life of a queen and a claim to this throne
To drink from the goblet to suck all the juice from the bone
Just a boy I devoted my life
To keep her safe to defend her right
She said oohh don’t leave me now
Don’t you go
Wrapped In red silk is a heart shaped white diamond thrown from the balcony
Into the garden a soldier’s last rite but I won’t die for you
The concertina spreads its bellows wide
Enchanting voice for all who hear it cry
I don’t wanna know
Who stays in the parlor when I’m in the valley below
Delicate folk music that recalls ’60s icons like Cat Stevens and Paul Simon on the new LP from Maine’s Simon Linsteadt. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 4, 2023
