lyrics
A small bird flew into my house
and I called her Belinda
I now that she's not mine to keep
and I know that nothing is
We went rowing out in the inlet
I thought that we would row forever
I showed you all my secret spots
and you showed me all your stripes
I am over the moon
I am over sitting in my blue gloom
I kiss my cats head
it smells like the earth
now I know just what that is worth
Soft rain falls and I think of you
Deep sleep comes and I dream of you
I'll eat everything on my plate
I will, I will, I will
with you
I knew there was a way back
I knew, I just couldn't find it
I've been holding my words back
you keep bringing them out
quiet enough to hear me
hiding under the hard shell
I can see the light
shining 'round my sister at night
I don't know, it gets me though
don't ask me why 'cos I don't know
don't ask me why
I have no answer to give
don't ask me why
I have no answer to give
I don't trust the one who does
I don't trust the one who does
It's the end of the day
we are watching the sun fade
It's the end of the day
it'll come back again
It's not true what they say
we haven't been wasting away
Even so it's okay
if we are wasting a day
It's not true what they say
