Birds |
Fall on me |
Fall on me |
Birds of a feather and a featherless cap |
Poor lovers breed songs in a two-room flat |
Moist hands fold to pray for a painless truth |
We dance on the tracks of a train called youth |
Truth’s on the table like a toxic spill |
And we wrestle in the sheets with our own freewill |
If we never shake hands with a phantom called fame |
I’ll still have your picture in a picture frame |
If you should fall |
Fall on me |
Forty-acre farm we can call our own |
With a chocolate lab and no telephone |
The full moon’s leering in a lover’s swoon |
And the apple tree’s swaying to a windy tune |
(save me I’m falling for you) |
But we won’t get to heaven if we just sit still |
If we don’t cry murder maybe no one will |
We’re riding tandem down Sycamore hill |
If we hit the brakes we’re gonna take a big spill |
If you should fall |
Fall on me |
And if my hand were taken hold of |
I’d slip away with you love |
Slip away with you love |
