Messenger Bird's Song

Lyrics

The kitchen is cold
 But the coffee is warm
 And the sun's coming up
 The day has just begun
 And you're already bored
 Bored of cheering me up
 Bored of calming me down
 Bored of drying my eyes
 But there once was a time
 When you were the one
 You were the blue of the sky
 You came after the storm
 You were the switch on the wall
 In the dark of the hall
 I'm still fumbling for
 'Cause I'm lost in the black
 I dont know where I am
 And my arms stretched out in front
 And I'm calling your name
 Just as loud as I can
 ♪
 And I know there's words that we will never speak
 And the questions can't be answered easily
 But I wanted to be easy so
 Nod your head if the plans have changed
 Shake it, love, if they've stayed the same
 Smile at me and I will stay
 Start to cry and I'll go away
 Just please don't leave me guessing
 So you made me come
 Then you sent me away
 Like a messenger bird
 So I circled the Earth
 Blown away in the wind
 But I always returned
 With some new little song
 Some sad story to tell
 Of a brief love affair
 With a girl I compared to you and she failed
 You said you don't want me to beg
 Then you said get down on your knees
 'Cause you knew that I would
 If I do any good satisfying your needs
 
 And I know all about those things we can not speak
 And just so you know well they don't bother me
 So you don't have to be worried
 Just nod your head if the plans have changed
 Shake it, love, if they stayed the same
 Smile at me and I will stay
 Start to cry and I'll go away
 Just please don't keep me waiting
 Just nod your head if your mind's been changed
 Shake it, love, if some hope remains
 Just say the word and of course I'll stay
 Roll your eyes and I'll go away
 Just please don't leave me guessing
 Just please don't keep me waiting
