Lyrics

Feathers

Feathered failures on my knees
I broke my back from missing thee
I turned to brittle barren worlds
I hear you're living with the girl
Sara Sara eyes of blue
Sara Sara in love you
She knows you had a woman fine
With eyes as deep as brandy wine
Flora flora, flora flora, flora flora,
Flora flora, flora flora, flora
Flora, flora, la da dum
Flora flora you knew her then
You plucked her from her fields of men
And all at once it came to me
Under my favorite lonesome tree
Sara Sara eyes of blue
Sara Sara in love with you
She knows you had a woman fine
With eyes as deep as brandy wine
Flora flora, flora flora, flora flora,
Flora flora, flora flora, flora
Flora, flora, la da dum
Feathered failures on my knees
I broke my back from missing thee
I turned to brittle barren worlds
I hear you're living with girl
Sara Sara eyes so blue
Sara Sara in love with you
She knows I was your woman fine
With eyes as deep as brandy wine
