Bluest of birds
Flying by my window
Baby
You’re seen and heard
Let’s meet by the willow tree
We’ll kiss and make plans
Like it’s our wedding
Keep holding my hand
I’m disappearing
Ain’t life beautiful
Baby
Ain’t life beautiful
Bluest of birds
Flying by my window
Baby
You’re seen and heard
Ain’t life beautiful
Ain’t life beautiful Baby

You were over there,
And I needed to be,
As close to something,
That looks like you and me,
That looks like you and me,
Those yellow falling leaves.

That I recall,
They're going south for the winter,
Leaving it all,
With you my life’s just better,
Ohhhh.

You would sit across,
That dusty hall,
And I asked myself some questions,
Can I fly or will I fall,
Can I fly or will I fall,
Can I be with you at all?

And I recall,
Your breath in the cold dark winter,
Leaving it all,
With you my life’s gets better,
Ohhhh.

I'm bent wrists,
Standing on my own two fists,
Thinking ‘bout the way we kissed,
Do you think about me?But you can't see,
The woods around for all these trees,
Even with the falling leaves,
Do you think about me?Just fake it,
Until you break it.I like you,
Yeah I like you,
Nobody else,
Does what you do,I like you,
Yeah I like you,
Nobody else,
Is gonna do.I'm dead weight,
We've been staying up too late,
Having trouble thinking straight,
Thinking about you.Just fake it,
Until you break it.I like you,
Yeah I like you,
Nobody else,
Does what you do,I like you,
Yeah I like you,
Nobody else,
Is gonna do.

My shoes,
They walked a hundred miles,
So you,
You could at least just stay for a while.It’s the least you could do.You sat staring at me,
I can't take you seriously,
When you looking like that,
Wearing a face like that.Headphones,
Keep me warm on the long walk home,
But you,
Could hold my hand so I'm not alone.It’s the least you could do.You sat looking at me,
I can't take you seriously,
With your hair falling over your eyes,
Trying to hide a smile.What’s the least you could do?

You slowed the clocks when you talked,
To me, to me,
The roof of my mouth turned heavy and round,
To me, to me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.A new newspaper crown,
I wore,
I wore it out,
If you, if you knew me now,
Could you go without?I wish you were still,
Teasing me out,
I wish you were still,
Around.I'll give,
Back the words that you said,
To me, to me,
I'll dry,
Out the stream that you fed,
Through me through me.I wish you were still,
Writing me down,
I wish you were still,
Around.

Here we go now, here we go,
Feel it all now, feel it all,
Here we go now, here we go.

Take my hand, c’mon hold on tight,
And we'll be on our way.

Rising sun in the morning light,
No longer will we lay.

Yeah because our love is alright,
Yeah because our love,
La, la, la.

You are the sunshine melting the snow,
You water the seed,
You give what it needs,
The leaves’ll grow,
So give me the sunshine.

High on a hillside you are the breeze,
I used to be small but then I grew tall,
I turned into a tree,
So give me a hillside.

Oh your love has fed the root,
made my blossoms turn to fruit,
Now the days are cold,
The wind begins to blow.

Yeah your love has fed the root,
from my branches fell the fruit,
Now the days are cold,
The wind begins to blow,
Yeah the sun's getting low.

You are the sun,
You are breeze,
I used to be small,
But now I'm a tree.

I'm a working man,
And I've got working hands,
And I've worked the land for ages, hmm.

But the toll this life has taken,
Is a back that’s always aching,
And if my scars could tell their tales,
It'd take a long, long time,
You'd hear about broken bones and splinters.

Yeah, tankard ales and long dark winters,
A laureate who’s not worried at the rhyme.

Oh but when the rain comes down,
I stop the rain from falling on the ground.

I'm a working man,
And I've got working hands,
I've worked the land for ages, hmm,
For ages, hmm.
