It's hard to hang up

without a proper goodbye



I was talkin' to a tone

without a chance of reply



Well our love just sprang up

so I guess it's no surprise



but I still can't forget those deep blue lies



I was a fool for your gaze

lord it burned so **** bright



There was no where I could go to hide from the light



And it warmed my chest, as it raised me up

So against my better judgment

I drank up that poison cup



God, that venom filled my blood

No, it didn't take long



Where I was weak

Girl, you made me feel strong



Then as quick as you came

Baby, you fled from me



As swift as the wind as it blows through the trees



I was a fool to fall for your dishonest eyes

when I think of them now

my spirit shrivels and dies



I'm sure that all your intentions were good

but if I could go back



I think that I would



take

it

all

back



take

my

love

back



cause I know


all I lack


and this ain't an attack:



I know this sounds absurd,

but darling you were my bird
