I'm A Hummingbird |
The old oak tree had roots so far down in the ground |
I fell from it and hit the dirt without a sound |
I dreamt at night of growing wings so I could fly |
A caterpillar to a moth before I die |
I plodded through, ordinarily earthbound |
I knew my feet could never leave the ground |
I went about my way, unsteady and afraid |
How could I know I was headed for this day? |
All the seconds |
And the minutes |
And the hours |
And the days |
And the weeks |
And the months |
And the years of my life |
It was all worth it |
To be here now |
I’m a hummingbird |
Floatin' tree to tree |
I’m a hummingbird |
Beautiful and free |
The old oak tree was dead; |
I had to cut it down |
The sapling roots were new and sprouting through the ground |
New worlds were taking shape, unseen and unknown |
A branch to rest upon, a place to call my own |
Something had changed and I’m not sure how or why |
I wasn’t dreaming; |
I was awake, I was alive |
Gave up the ghost; |
he had nothing left to say |
But it was him who brought me to this day |
All the seconds |
And the minutes |
And the hours |
And the days |
And the weeks |
And the months |
And the years of my life |
It was all worth it |
To be here now |
I’m a hummingbird |
Floatin' tree to tree |
I’m a hummingbird |
Beautiful and free |
