Love Be A Bird
Oh love be a bird
I could use some flying now
Oh love be a bird
I could use some flying now

I can't move to take a step
Or much less catch my breath
You've caught me now
There's a concrete cloud hovering
And the daylight's forever wearing thin
Not a gale or any unharnessed
Other wind could move me now
I've been fighting against the storm
Screaming for a downpour, some relief, you know

I hate you're so far away
And that scratch you call a voice weighs heavy on me
Conversations I repeat
A simple night I constantly re-read
I can't move to take a step
Or much less catch my breath
You've caught me now

Oh love be a bird
I could use some flying now
Oh love be a bird
I could use some flying now
