Songbird

(album: Sirens - 2016)

There are places that I remember you sang in the night
And it turned into day
Well they're saying that you have gone quiet
They say that you hide your love away

But they don't know you the way that I know you
With your little vices they are fencing you in
And all of the others, those girls in their circles
If you could see in their eyes when you start to sing

You're a songbird and we ain't seen nothing
We ain't seen nothing, nothing at all
Little songbird don't hide it away
Show your heart to the world and never stop singing
Don't you ever stop singing
And one of these days you'll believe when we say
You're a songbird, God made you that way

Time changes things and moves like a freight train
And I know that time hasn't always been kind
And all of the others those boys and their circles
If they could see the fire in your eyes every time that you sing

You're a songbird and we ain't seen nothing
We ain't seen nothing, nothing at all
Little songbird don't hide it away
Show your heart to the world and never stop singing
Don't you ever stop singing
And one of these days you'll believe when we say
You're a songbird, God made you that way

So show us what you're made of
Show us what you're made of
Show us what you're made of
Show us what you're made of
And one of these days you'll believe when we say
You're a songbird, God made you that way
