Mockingbirds

Davis Station at last, finally we meet
I done all these years out here in the street
I had a feeling you would make yourself known
You came along just to claim your place on the throne
Now I been overthrown, overthrown
Chorus
And I thought if I told the right lies
but these mockingbirds won't let me shine
Davis Station, my door was left open wide
you brought me into your heart then you swallowed my pride
I had a feelin' you were hidin' your thoughts
I makin' a note to myself, I nearly forgot
Now I'm overwrought, I'm overwrought
Chorus (2X)
One day this ground will break and open up for me
I hope it will, I hope it will
Salutations at last, I'm down on my knees
I heard the bugle this morning blast revelry
woke from a dream where I was in a terrible realm
All my sails were ablaze and I was chained to the helm
Now I'm overwhelmed, overwhelmed
Chorus (4x)
