My Reward

Hamilton Leithauser

I heard a across the grass on Easter morning
From where I sat I could have sworn it was a hundred or more

Then on uplifting chords
I sang along
All those familiar voices
I was left alone
Dear heart you always drag me
So high and low

Leave us
Peacefully
Leave us
Peacefully
Leave us
Peacefully

Come with me
Oh, honey come with me
I wish we could recreate those lovely harmonies
Come with me
Oh, honey come with me
I wish we could recreate those lovely harmonies

But would you really need to hear it
To believe it?
I swear I'm not the child I always was
Baby that's because

All night you hear me calling
Wild
Out of the April darkness
I walk in the fall
Dear heart you're always dragging me
So high and low

Leave us
Peacefully
Leave us
Peacefully
Leave us
Peacefully
Ow!
