Acid Rain

Another hummingbird departs
Another lingers in the yard
Envy how they dive so effortlessly
Envy how they revel in their weightlessness
I've recognized the beauty in fragility, it's true
But I feel like a stranger to it now suddenly
I don't wanna leave this garden alone
While they come and go I hover
Still enough to paint me with them
And if I can be more plainspoken
Your voice is with me, I'm reminded
I sing in part because you often
Told me that you liked to listen
Another bowl of nectar laid
Another glass of lemonade
I watch them both evaporate into the summer heat
I don't wanna leave this garden alone
While they come and go I hover
I don't wanna reach an end to the call
So I'll leave the phone on the table
Stand there as the dial tone runs
And if I can be more plainspoken
Your voice is with me, I'm reminded
I sing in part because you often
Told me that you liked to listen
And I believe you
And I'll believe in you
And I believe you
And I'll believe in you
And if I can be more plainspoken
Your voice is with me, I'm reminded
I sing in part because you often
Told me that you liked to listen
