Messenger Bird's Song Lyrics - There Is No Beginning To The Story - Bright Eyes

The kitchen is cold 

But the coffee is warm 

And the suns coming up 

The day has just begun 

And your already bored 

Bored of cheering me up 

Bored of calming me down 

Bored of drying my eyes 

But there once was a time 

When you were the one 

You were the blue of the sky 

You came after the storm 

You were the switch on the wall 

In the dark of the hall 

I'm still fumbling for 

'Cause I'm lost in the black 

I don't know where I am 

And arms strecthed out in front 

And I'm calling your name 

Just as loud as I can 

And I know there's words that we will never speak 

And the questions can't be answered easily 

But I wanted to be easy so 

Nod your head if the plans have changed 

Shake it, love, if they stayed the same 

Smile at me and I will stay 

Start to cry and I'll go away 

Just please don't leave me guessing 

So you made me come 

Then you sent me away 

Like a messenger bird 

So, I circled the earth 

Blown away in the wind 

But I always returned 

With some new little song 

Some sad story to tell 

Of a brief love affair 

With a girl I compared to you and she failed 

You said you don't want me to beg 

Then you said get down on your knees 

'Cause you knew that I would 

If I do any good 

Satisfying your needs 

And I know all about those things we cannot speak 

And just so you know, well, they don't bother me 

So you don't have to be worried 

Just nod your head if the plans have changed 

Shake it, love, if they stayed the same 

Smile at me and I will stay 

Start to cry and I'll go away 

Just please don't keep me waiting 

Oh, just nod your head if your mind's been changed 

Shake it, love, if some hope remains 

Just say the word and of course I'll stay 

Roll your eyes and I'll go away 

Just please don't leave me guessing 

Just please don't keep me waiting
