Her children sleep, the moments creep away
In stale rooms, with diesel fume malaise

	The sirens and lights, they pierced the night
	Stirring up a sleeping appetite

When Katie spoke, of crimson smoke and wings 
The meadowlarks, in ghetto parks would sing

	The melody would echo through the air
	And travel through the window to her chair

		In old shoes, the same views
		The gravity of life to weigh her down
		In gray dreams, the sky seems
		Larger than it was, or is it because 
		She lost her wings 

She can't recall, her steady fall from grace
But she was down, on solid ground to stay

	And somewhere in the journey she found peace
	In trading all the dreams for guarantees

		Chorus

		Solo

		Chorus

The sycamore is there no more to climb
But still she dreams, of quiet streams and flying

Standard tuning, capo 5
