BIRD SONG EP

Bird Song 
 
so I can fly or I can dive
or I can hide up in the sky
and watch you walk along the street
but I can’t hold a thing with these fine wings
 
oh I can live up in the trees
or I can rest upon a breeze
and watch you walk the empty streets
but I can’t hold a thing with these fine wings
 
and when I ask the clouds above
what I should do with all my love
they say a boy might love a girl
but he can only hunt a bird
 
so I can fly right through the fire
or I can sing upon a wire
and watch you walking as you dream
but I can’t hold a thing with these fine wings
 
and when I ask the clouds above
what I should do with all my love
they say a boy might love a girl
but he could only hurt a bird
 
 
Dream For Me
 
Dream for me when I can’t sleep
dream all through the day
dream of things that you can’t keep
dream your life away
 
God gives you a bag of dreams
for the night is long
I sold mine for anything
sold them for a song
 
You have got so many dreams
no one believes you
come and tell them all to me
I can see they’re true
 
Dream for me when I’m awake
dream another day
dream of things that they can’t take
dream this life away
 
 
A Sailor On The Town
 
You’re like a sailor on the town
you’re a stranger
you’re a clown
and I just wish that you’d come around
 
I don’t see why they put you down
something’s lost
but something’s found
and I just wish that you’d come around
 
I’m always letting someone down
they want more and
they want it now
and I just wish that you’d come around
 
All of these days and all these doubts
all the ways that
I could get out
and I just wish that you’d come around
 
So many miles outside of town
and the stars
they don’t make a sound
and I just wish that you’d come around
 
I used to think that it mattered how
but I guess that
don’t matter now
and I just wish that you’d come around
 
 
You Seem Like Brighter Days To Me
 
You seem like brighter days to me
like love upon the silver screen
like all the things I wish I’d seen
you seem like brighter days to me
 
You seem like brighter days to me
you seem like a lucky streak
you seem like tinfoil in my beak 
you seem like brighter days to me
 
You seem like brighter days to me
You seem like falling back to sleep
you seem like things you get to keep
you seem like brighter days to me
 
You seem like brighter days to me
days when you can do anything
days when you don’t care what it means
you seem like brighter days to me
