Lyrics

Silver-wing-ed, broken english, boys they smoke
 Talk and joke
 Above the water
 New York lady, holding in her heavy hand
 Sacred lantern, guiding dawn
 Quit all that looking back
 I quit all of that
 Casting glances backwards, but it's not your fault
 Turned to salt for wondering
 In your braids and heavy pages, we were folded
 Kiss the cold and dirty ground
 Quit all that looking back
 I quit all of that
 Seasons wake with sleeping birds now flying south
 Covered mouth, we watch in awe
 Fallen pines to shape the skyline
 Take me there
 Beneath the barren colored moon
 Quit all that looking back
 I quit all of that
 Greeting all the masses
 From their teeming shores
 She was born with open eyes
 Her color . . . is coming back
 Silver-wing-ed, broken english, boys they smoke
 Talk and joke
 Above the water
 New York lady, holding in her heavy hand
 Sacred lantern, guiding dawn
 Quit all that looking back
 I quit all of that
 Casting glances backwards, but it's not your fault
 Turned to salt for wondering
 In your braids and heavy pages, we were folded
 Kiss the cold and dirty ground
 Quit all that looking back
 I quit all of that
 Seasons wake with sleeping birds now flying south
 Covered mouth, we watch in awe
 Fallen pines to shape the skyline
 Take me there
 Beneath the barren colored moon
 Quit all that looking back
 I quit all of that
 Greeting all the masses
 From their teeming shores
 She was born with open eyes
 Her color . . . is coming back
