Lyrics Songbird - Ellen Benediktson

Songbird

Nights wait at the door and they threaten to tear me apart
Quiet, dangerous silence is running away with my heart
So I listen and cling to the sound of a voice in the dark
Won’t you sing for me, songbird?
Sing for the lonely ones
Sing me away from here with words for the broken
You can fly where I cannot fly
Sing for me, songbird, sing
Lights, outside the lights no one knows how I fight in my sleep
And I, I have to believe every note in your throat will be sweet
Won’t you sing for me, songbird?
Sing for the lonely ones
Sing me away from here with words for the broken
You can fly where I cannot fly
Sing for me, songbird, sing
It isn’t fair to always lean
To be such a weight on your fragile wings
Come lift me up, you always do
When you…
Would you?
Oh, oh
Sing me away from here
With words for the broken
You can fly where I cannot fly
Sing for me songbird, sing
