Bird

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I kept the bottle we drank from together I don't know, is that insane? It's just every once in a while you've Got to remind yourself That it's you against the rain And I'm not sure yet who will win If there's a heaven and if there's a hell I'm sure that we'll wind up there together And dine there as well In the eyes of the other Breaking bread over anecdotes Of what, I don't know But something funny, I'm sure [Chorus] And bird, if I held you too tight Bird, if you were warm through the night I will let go As wide as the storm that does brew I will let go of you I will let go of you [Verse 2] Some days are harder than other days As I wait like strings to be plucked To the tune of a song you sang to me one day Rikki-Tikki-Tavi [Chorus] And bird, if your wings have gone clipped As I pressed myself to your lips I'll release you With what is left of your wings I will leave you to sing I will leave you to sing And bird, if love went awry Each time I looked too deep in your eyes I'll look away so that you can fly away I'll even lead you astray I will lead you astray I will lead you astray [Outro] I will lead you (astray) (Lead you astray) (Lead you astray) (Lead you astray) (Lead you astray)
