Come to Stay

Crow flew to my window

Come to stay, come to stay

Crow flew to my window, come to stay

Crow flew to my window

Seem like just the other day

Crow flew to my window, come to stay

 

Right there by his side she was his raven bride

Like dark honey by full moon their light did shine

And together day by day many wonders they displayed

From the crown of that old sweet magnolia tree

 

You know they made a strong foundation of interwoven sticks

A fortress from thin air and corvus wit

And they lined that nest with love, pine needles, grass, and bits of fluff

They bound it with young ivy—soft as spring
