Hummingbird Lyrics - Singles - Three Fish

One, two, three, four 

Of the men who were loved by you 

Some were lookin' for a woman to play 

One who could venture to the empty rooms 

And carry their bodies away 

Of course there's a ghost 

And maybe one was a king 

He whispered but never came through 

One so alone, sad as a poem 

Who hovered by the window then flew 

Away from poison rainbows 

Away from fallen snow 

Away from stumblin' footsteps 

Away from so alone 

But to lie down beside you 

To feel the heart beat in your breath 

To carry my song to you 

To bury the words inside 

Is all I really want 

Twisted and simple 

You curled into the shoulder 

Of a joker that could not surrender 

Like some endless river 

He broke into the layers 

Sunsets darken the waters 

Of course there was laughter 

In this shelter of strangers 

In the rooms of I love you, I love you 

One so alone, sad as a poem 

Who hovered by the window then flew 

Away from poison rainbows 

Away from fallen snow 

Away from stumblin' footsteps 

Away from so alone 

But to lie down beside you 

To feel the heart beat in your breath 

To carry my song to you 

To bury the words inside 

Is all I really want
