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 |
