Lyrics

Bird

I saw you in my dream last night
My little lost bird
Colourful with eyes so bright
Lightin' up my world

You came to tell me everything
That I'm too stubborn to learn
And with no doubt
I leaned in and watched my troubles burn

The flames are dancin' and the flames are free
My heart's been hidin', but my eyes now see
Everything I've been missin' is everything I could be
Everything I've been missin' is everything you give to me

I heard you in my dream last night
My little lost bird
You sang a song
And it found me like no song had done before

You came to me like a memory
Like a love I'd already learned
And with no doubt
I leaned in and watched my troubles burn

The flames are dancin' and the flames are free
My hearts been hidin', but my eyes now see
Everything I've been missin' is everything I could be
Everything I've been missin' is everything you give to me

Oh, everything I've been missin', everything I could be
Everything I've been missin', everything I could be
Ooh, everything I've been missin', everything I could be
Ooh, everything I've been missin' is everything you give to me

I saw you in my dream last night
My little lost bird
Colourful, with eyes so bright
Lightin' up my world
