I wanna look like a bird--careless, weightless and free. |
|
I wanna look like a bird--careless, weightless and free. |
|
To perch like a yellow hammer, to have a grackle's gate, |
|
To wander marigold blossoms or feather and fly away. |
|
Like the tree grew for standing |
|
And they stand for me. |
|
Like the tree grows branches |
|
And they stand for me. |
|
I wanna look like a bird, scissor wings and split the sky. |
|
I wanna look like a bird, like I know what it is to fly. |
|
Like I don't know about falling |
|
Or what it is to cry |
|
To look like a bird, careless in the world |
|
Like tears are foreign to my eyes. |
|
I wanna look like a bird, stare raven cold and mean. |
|
Night hawk. Night birds see through everything. |
|
Like I don't care or grieve, |
|
Like I've never been drunk on wine. |
|
Oh to look like a bird, |
|
Weightless in the world careless on the vine. |
|
I wanna look like a bird, like I was mean to sing. |
|
I wanna look like a bird, like I know my place world. |
|
Like I know my place in the world. |
