Claire Hamill – Oregon Inlet lyrics
If you make your way up to Oregon Inlet
just at the turning of the year
Open your eyes as you reach the marshland
for all of the birds in the world meet there
And when the spring tide is changing
The coastline and everything's wild and everything's new
The beating of bird's wings will carry the music
of a thousand secrets home to you
If I could gather all the people like soft bird feathers
then I know which ones I'd choose
I'd choose the water lovers and the earth mothers
and the ones with nothing to lose
I'd give them wings and watch them soar
with their newfound freedom to the sky
And you'd see them winging
and you'd hear them singing as you quietly passed by
If you make your way up to Oregon Inlet
just at the turning of the year
Open your eyes as you reach the marshland
for all of the birds in the world meet there
If I could gather all the people like soft bird feathers
then I know which ones I'd choose
I'd choose the water lovers and the earth mothers
and the ones with nothing to lose
I'd give them wings and watch them soar
with their newfound freedom to the sky
And you'd see them winging
and you'd hear them singing as you quietly passed by
If you make your way up to Oregon Inlet
just at the turning of the year
Open your eyes as you reach the marshland
for all of the birds in the world meet there
And you want to find me that's where I'll be.
I'll be waiting.
I'll be waiting for you
At Oregon Inlet
