lyrics

When everything is shinin
Through your bright light eyes I
See them reflecting my fire
But, what are you afraid of?
Afraid to fall in love?
That something might sting you inside?

But loves a bird
With daggers in its feathers
And Kalil said it first
Nobodys said it better, I’d rather
Fly from the Earth
In the heart of your words
Than be tethered to the ground by my fear

Cause, it can get lonely out there
If you don’t, know know know nobody out there
No one to make simple conversation
And if you let me baby
Maybe maybe we can make it maybe but
But I understand your hesitation

Cause it’s much too easy to pass
Into the seasonless world
Where you will laugh but not all your laughter
And cry, but not all your tears
Oh, make it worse
Before you make it better and just
Make sure you leave me with a feather
So I may breathe in your
Words Forever
I promise I’ll leave the ground

Cause, it can get lonely out there
If you don’t, know know know nobody out there
No one to make simple conversation
And if you let me baby
Maybe maybe we can make it maybe but
But I understand your situation
