Birds on a Wire

We took aim at the wires where the love birds waived

For the sky and the wind to decide their fate

With a steady grip we stretched our bows

Where each one fell there grew a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose

A rose, a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose,

A rose, a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose

We ran through the fields and we bled by the thorns

Stained red windows where our skin was torn

To put an end to the pain we climbed inside

And we raced on our breathe to our hearts till we cried

The heat from our tears

Singed the fields like fire

So we flew

To lovers landing on a wire

Isn’t it enough to make you stay

Giving you a million reasons

You’re still leaving

Isn’t it enough to make you stay

Giving you a million reasons

You’re still leaving

We loved eruptions

Splinters and beads

But they don’t fit here, anymore

I’d give my place up, at the feast

To just not feel, so much hunger

You’re still leaving

You’re still leaving.

Isn’t it enough to make you stay

Giving you a million reasons

You’re still leaving

Isn’t it enough to make you stay

Giving you a million reasons

You’re still leaving

Of all the ways to say goodbye

Why do you make it look so easy

And why do you have to leave me

All the ways to say goodbye

Why do we make it look so easy

And why do you have to leave me

Why do you have to leave me

Baby don’t leave me
