Redwing

Backstage Notes: Song by Song through Reach For the Morning

Includes early voice memos, demos and unpublished alternative takes.

red-winged painted blackbird swaying on a reed

swallow in the eaves

dropping like a fighter tipping on the breeze

red-winged painted blackbird spying from a tree

starlings on a steed

shimmer in the sun and scatter like the leaves

rain falls through the rafters battering the tin

bluebird coming in

gathered in her wings a shower for my sins

I dream of places I’ll never see by my will

skies only God can fill and grounds to alight and be still

blackbird with your red wing

dipper in the creek water to your knees

dancing on the stones and slipping underneath

dancing on the stones dancing on the stones and slipping underneath
