The little yellow birds,. Do they cry for me,. Or do they cry with happiness ?. They look down on me with tiny eyes,. Do they see my tears?. They seem to flutter by so carelessly,.
There goes the other side,. And it goes on without us, it goes on.. And soon you'll know just how I feel. When you know, you'll understand.. There's the way you are your own.
Which way can we go, only the moon casts a shadow.. When we look far below the path is sharp and narrow.. Your thoughts and mine, are far away from this moment, from this moment..
Tell me it's not so, tell me a lie,. Say you won't go, say you won't say goodbye.. Tell me forever and that times they don't change.. Say you're not leaving and that you'll always feel the same..
A southern breeze and this road I'm on,. I wonder if I'll see the end.. The city of my sleep where angels dream,. Wrapped up closely to the dawn.. Follow time, like a ghost,.
Listen to the wind, it calls out my name,. It calls with it's wanderin' ways.. Somewhere out yonder kindlin' my flame. Turnin' my tearin' to a blaze..
You can listen to what I say,. Or you can turn the other way. Don't be kind just to please my heart,. But please don't tear my heart apart.. It's not easy, the world was meant for me to roam,.
So uncertain I double as a shadow or someone who doesn't understand.. Blatant or misshapen and far too weary to pretend to understand.. In my mind's eye, I am love's pauper and I am going nowhere..
In the muddy brown water where I wrote your name.. Sadly it tells me that our luck has changed.. When I met you halfway to a place we call madness,. With a rock in my heart, I sank in despair..
Do you fancy me, or am I living in make believe?. Am I someone just to pass your time?. To pass lonely hours 'til your heart can be free,. Then you'll forget all about me.
Is that all there is to a name, a lost and childish heart.. There's nothing you give that's not dangerous or cold.. Is that there is to a game, a game of broken hearts..
Down the road sits the Big O Motel,. Where people tell lies in their own private cell.. With cast down eyes and a packaged surprise,. I come and I go we plan it just so..
