Song | The Bird That You Can’t See |
Artist | The Apples in Stereo |
Album | Sound Effects 92-00 |
Let me tell you ‘bout the end of the beginning | |
Or of the end depending where you land. | |
You came on the scene just as the party’s ending | |
I’ll start again and then you’ll understand. | |
It’s like the bird | |
That you can’t see | |
But you can hear the pretty music in the tree. | |
It’s like the word | |
That you can’t say | |
But you can sing the pretty music anyway. | |
Now I know there are some things that you need to discover | |
Turn off your mind and do yourself a favour | |
(like the bird, | |
you can’t see, | |
it’s a part of you, woo | |
and it’s a part of me) | |
Girl, I can see behind your eyes your mind is spinnin’ | |
Cause if your eyes can make the skies come clear | |
So you came in at the bottom of the inning | |
And no one knows ( if whether ) you’re from here | |
It’s like the bird | |
That you can’t see | |
But you can hear the pretty music in the tree. | |
It’s like the word | |
That you can’t say | |
But you can sing the pretty music anyway. | |
Now I know there are some things (that) require concentration | |
Turn off your mind and use your ‘magination. | |
(girl you know what I’m talking about) | |
Come down and plant your feet into the ground. | |
Feel free; plant your mind in mystery. | |
So you want to know the meaning of my song? | |
I’ll tell you now: it’s all about how you feel. | |
Baby, I don’t know or care where you are from, | |
Just so I know that where you go is real. | |
It’s like the bird | |
That you can’t see | |
But you can hear the pretty music in the tree. | |
It’s like the word | |
That you can’t say | |
But you can sing the pretty music anyway. | |
Now I know there are some things that you need to explain (girl) | |
Turn off your mind; you’re using up your brain. (c’mon) | |
(like the bird, | |
you can’t see, | |
it’s a part of you, woo | |
and it’s a part of me) |
