Listen to the hummingbird
Whose wings you cannot see
Listen to the hummingbird
Don't listen to me
Listen to the butterfly
Whose days but number three
Listen to the butterfly
Don't listen to me
Listen to the mind of God
Which doesn't need to be
Listen to the mind of God
Don't listen to me
Listen to the hummingbird
Whose wings you cannot see
Listen to the hummingbird
Don't listen to me
