Owls by Magnolia Collective Lyrics

Tonight before you lay down to sleep
I hope you’ll think of me

Yes there in the dark when the shadows fall deep
I hope you’ll dream of me

As the owls in your backyard

Take flight with a violent spark

And like an engine going down by the clock
I’m leaving this open song


Tonight before you lay down to sleep
I hope you’ll think of me

As you push the pillow away from your face
I hope you’ll dream of me

As the sirens downtown swell away
And skim the backroads like storms on a lake

In the half-light your memories’ cold bones
I’m leaving this open song

Tonight before we lay down to sleep
I hope you’ll think of me

Tonight in the dark as the shadows fall deep
I hope you’ll dream of me

And now the owls in your backyard

Take flight with a violent spark

In the half-light your memories’ cold bones
I’m leaving this open song
I’m leaving this open song
I’m leaving
