Family - Dar Williams

Can you fix this?

its a broken heart.

It was fine, but it just fell apart.

It was mine, but now I give it to you,

Cause you can fix it, you know what to do.

Let your love cover me,

Like a pair of angel wings,

You are my family,

You are my family.

We stood outside in the summer rain,

Different people with a common pain.

A simple box in that hard red clay,

Where we left him to always remain.

Let your love cover me,

Like a pair of angel wings,

You are my family,

You are my family.

The child who played with the moon and stars,

Waves a snatch of hay in a common barn,

In the lonely house of adams fall

Lies a child, its just a child thats all, crying

Let your love cover me,

Like a pair of angel wings,

You are my family,

You are my family.
