Natalie Duncan - Songbird Lyrics
It's getting much colder beyondthe sky's bright lightI see white smoke fading.Upon last summer’s sun,dissolving into honey I letmy lonely bones speak louder.And I can't tell the colourof your eyes, but I feel themburn a fire through my skin.And the rain runs upand down my gutters,you hang inside me,build my sweet ruin.Dust rests on my floor and I dance on its dirt,this home wasn't made for one.Winter falls upon me, so blue and icy chicit crawls into my steel heart.And the rain runs up and down my curtains,with tiny feet that I long to find.And I wish I knew you like I knew them,you are more beautiful in the rainfall.There is solitude on the river,she mirrors the dark folk and the haze.You run through me and I shiverlike black ice on my grave.Ooh, ooh...Its heavy in my bloodI am no longer light,I feel lead in my chest.Running by the freight trains,I'm hiding with the homelyin their cardboard beds.And I wish I had the touchof your hands but I feel themrunning a symphony.And I wish I knew youlike I knew your songs,but I'm just a wretchresting on your chords.There is solitude on the river,she mirrors the dark folk and the haze.You run through me and I shiver likeblack ice on my grave.There is solitude on the river,she mirrors the dark folk and the haze.You run through me and I shiver likeblack ice on my grave.You are my saving grace the songbirdthat lands on my hand, to bring me life.I want to cherish you for longerthan your wings will let you fly.
