©1986 Andrew Calhoun, recorded on Hope

Flying with the starling
Running with the deer
I'm looking for my darling
I thought she would be here

Chorus:
I need more love
Than I can show
I need more love
Than you will ever know

Don't hold me up against it
Don't catch me when I fail
Let me wander through it slowly
Don't call me on detail

Just like that babe in arms, dear
Just like that hungry bear
Just like that leaping lapdog
Wrestler in a wheelchair

Fog creeps up the meadow
And it follows on the dew
It settles on the window
Blocks the field from view

And when I lose my focus
Fooled and falsely free
Then I lose my darling
Wishing she were me

And if I speak unkindly
When I am half awake
Let your love be larger then
Than my last mistake
