Tekst
You saw
Your face in the river
I know
There's nothing worth waiting for
You said goodbye tomorrow night
To a broken songbird
I cut down my old tree
They all watched and cried for me
The sun rises in the east
Sets in the west
I just can't stand to see you so distressed
I know it's hard to leave this place
I know you'll never see my face
But when it called I came
Like it always knew my name
Here we are
You know it too
You must know that there's a world
Beyond me and you
You heard
An old scratched up record
I just closed my eyes
I hope you remember
The song I sang
The song I sang
My voice didn't sing
But it rang
Minutes pass like days and days like years
I know you only see through bitter tears
Leave behind my afterthought
Just remember what it brought
I can't sing for you
I don't know this tune
This songbird has reached its time
The world's in a steep decline
And as we bear this weight
Our world turns at a frightening rate
Here he comes
Don't fear
He wonders why we're here
So near
Well it's his time
To grow old
He's been told
And then
He saw
You saw
Your face in the river
I know
There's nothing worth waiting for
You said goodbye tomorrow night
To a broken songbird
You said goodbye tomorrow night
To a broken songbird
You saw
You saw
You saw
You saw
You saw
