A Bird Flies by Songtext

von Port O'Brien

I ve been sleeping outside
It s damp and rainy
I ve been dreaming a song
That song is you

And I ve been thinking of love
Moulded up with clay
And I made a joke about you
Came back to haunt me

When I m old
I ll rest my bones
In the midnight sky
A bird flies by

I waded through all the tall grass
With eyes wide-open
And I took a swim with Grandpa
In hopes that you would find me

And I stole your fishing boots
Replaced them with diamonds
That way when you are gone
I am not forgotten

Out through the chimney
And into the sky
The clouds they are empty
And a bird flies by

And out through the chimney
And into the sky
The clouds they are empty
And a bird flies by
