Sweet Bird

[Verse 1] Out on some borderline Some mark of in between I lay down golden in time and woke up vanishing [Verse 2] Sweet bird you are Briefer than a falling star All these vain promises on beauty jars Somewhere with your wings on time you must be laughing [Verse 3] Behind our eyes Calendars of our lives Circled with compromise Sweet bird of time and change, you must be laughing Up on your feathers laughing [Verse 4] Golden in time Cities under the sand Power, ideals and beauty fading in everyone's hands [Verse 5] Give me some time I feel like I'm losing mine Out here on this horizon line With the earth spinning and the sky forever rushing [Verse 6] No one knows They can never get that close Guesses at most Guesses based on what each set of time and change is touching [Outro] Guesses based on what each set of time and change is touching Guesses based on what each set of time and change is touching
