From the recording The Wooden House
Lyrics
I used to walk
Around the cracks in the pavement and pray for luck
And I feared the dark
And the beast in the basement
He terrified me
Then once upon a time
Something changed my mind
This old stone heart of mine
I would do anything if I could only make it shine
Maybe you’ll change my luck this time
Magpie my my
My magpie
And so it was
In these strange crooked acres I met my love
And with no fear I watched everything I had known disappear for me
No more regrets I sighed
This bird has changed my mind
This old stone heart of mine
I would do anything if I could only make it shine
Maybe you’ll change my luck this time
Magpie my my
My magpie
I used to
I used to walk
You’d better change my luck this time Magpie my my
Magpie my my
My magpie
My my my my
My my my my
My magpie
