Seasonal Birds - The Birds Lyrics




Little flock of birds on the ladder of a fire escape
Little bit of living, that's all that I can take
I said I'm running out of time,
I'm running out of ways to grieve
The birds just sang, oh sometimes people just leave
Sometimes people just leave

I got turned around in a graveyard
So I asked if I could stay
Is there an empty plot or an open grave
For younger bones to lay
But no sir, no sir, you're far too young,
You cannot rest today
Besides, you wouldn't fare well
With an early judgment day
Oh, you wouldn't fare well
With an early judgment day

And I hope I do forgive you
Before I do drop dead
But that just don't seem likely
I'll live with you instead
Cause forgiveness ain't a stranger,
No he comes once in a while
And he's always got a gift,
But I've never seen him smile
I've never seen him smile

We danced each other round
We got twisted up in knots
There's a lot that I remember
So much more that I forgot
'Cept the air was warm and you were sweet
And that I want you like I've never wanted before
But you love with no ceiling
I love with no floor
Oh, you love with no ceiling
I love with no floor

And I hope I do forgive you
Before I do drop dead
But that just don't seem likely
I'll live with you instead
Cause forgiveness ain't a stranger,
No he comes once in a while
And he's always got a gift,
But I've never seen him smile
I've never seen him smile

Hmm
Hmm
Hmm
The birds just sang, oh sometimes people just leave
Sometimes people just leave
