For Island Fires And Family Lyrics - Dermot Kennedy

How it must feel to be a bird 

Roamin' lonely over sea air 

How it must feel to be a bird 

London, Paris, underneath 

And I'll wait on my own 

(Ooh, hmm, ooh) 

And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry 

And no, you couldn't tell me enough that you love me 

But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me 

Damn permanent reverie 

And even though this life, this love is brief 

I've got some people who carry me

Wasn't it love as soon as we knew each other properly? 

Livin' 'bout half right 'til a certain person got to me 

Nothin' is secret, everythin's sacred, how it ought to be 

Under the moonlight on a clear night 

On rooftops is where I want to be 

Sometimes I'm like a child, that's somethin' I can't release 

Dreams of her comin' home, sweet home 

And I'm tellin' you home is so sweet 

Said you reminded me of the summertime, and I still mean that 

In a full room, I'm the only one she's smilin' at 

So wouldn't you let me know if you were thinkin' less of me? 

That's what she asked me 

What was promised, what we both agreed 

But truthfully, if you ever go 

You'll drop me straight to Hell, the 7th circle 

And I was talkin' with you earlier 

We were open and vulnerable, it was wonderful 

I, I used to dream that you would talk to me 

I used to dream that you would talk to me 

And I couldn't tell you enough that I'm sorry 

And no, you couldn't tell me enough that you love me 

But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me 

Damn permanent reverie 

And even though this life, this love is brief 

I've got some people who carry me 

You know that feelin' when you think your 

heart is gonna come right out through your shirt? 

Get it a couple times a year 

But I've been gettin' it more often with her 

Now when I'm face to face with death, I'll grab his throat 

And ask him, "How does it hurt?" 

Up in those golden moments, growin' old too quickly 

Was he thinkin' of her? 

But she's bringin' the moon and stars to me 

Damn permanent reverie 

And even though this life, this love is brief 

I've got some people who carry me
