All his life, blown by wildfire
like a spark, cause and effect
one loose word, a revolution
one kind act, whole armies give thanks

Falling dove, born of ocean
found by man, lived on his own
lift a sail, tighten the knots
lift him up, barely breathing

Falling dove
do you believe in us
like I believe in us
is the outcome ever strange enough
you keep defending me
when I'm behaving badly
because you love me
because you love me too much

May the best of fortune bless you
could any creature be unmoved
the humble nature of redemption
the simple act of finding a use
hoping and almost praying
believing for a moment its true

I made a rendezvous in Moscow station
a midnight passenger, the café is closed
in St. Petersburg the door slides open
I'm a dead man till I see her walk through
falling dove
