Twisted Olive Branch
Asaf Avidan
Love is deep
The deepest ocean will come
With the sound of a thousand waves, hit the shore
Love is black
The darkest raven will crawl
With the pain of a thousand black feathers
And the hate for a dove
Fly, black raven!
My heart on open hatch
Fly, black raven!
Come back, raven!
Twist your twisted leg upon that twisted olive branch
Hope is small
The smallest light beam will come
With the dance of a thousand flakes of dust
Hope is wrong
A weary sailor will fall
With the betrayal of a thousand black stones
And a prayer for more
Fly, black raven
My heart on open hatch
Fly, black raven
Come back, raven
Twist your twisted leg upon that twisted olive branch
Fly, black raven
My heart on open hatch
Fly, black raven
Come back, raven
Twist that twisted leg upon that twisted olive branch
