When a Hawk Comes By - Oh Land

I am waking up by a heavy thud

And I wonder what it is, it’s a little odd

On a big city lane, is it true what I see?

A hawk landed in my window pane

What did you come here to change?

A sign they say, when a hawk comes by

Fly me away to the tallest mountain

From these heights, I can focus now

In an air-tight space, I feel comfortable

Every object in my room, I can control

Inconvenience comes when a stranger is announced

Simple question: What do I want?

What did you come here to change?

A sign they say, when a hawk comes by

Fly me away to the tallest mountain

From these heights, I can focus now

Fly me away to the tallest mountain

From these heights, I can focus now

I can still remember, your watchful eye

And the marks in the wood that you left behind

It is true what they say, no one goes unchanged

In their lives, when a hawk comes by
