[Verse 1]
Songbirds in the morning had my head
Lost in the tall trees I knew well
Well, I would say, dreaming my dry weeds
[Verse 2]
Stray light finds its way to all of us
Say something green, it comes back
Sunlight on my lips, let 'em kiss dark leaves
[Pre-Chorus]
Let the hands of the wrong prophets heal me all they should
Let the wine of the poison Jesuses taste good
And all those trees lay down
If you were a bird and fell into my arms
[Chorus]
If I wrote your song in stone
If I wore your wings back home
Would the dreams in the backwater drown us far from harm?
[Verse 3]
Give this to the gray, it comes back gold
Birds of the morning, they may know
Know more than us, giving their hymns for life
Songbirds in the morning had my head
Lost in the tall trees I knew well
Well, I would say, dreaming my dry weeds
[Verse 2]
Stray light finds its way to all of us
Say something green, it comes back
Sunlight on my lips, let 'em kiss dark leaves
[Pre-Chorus]
Let the hands of the wrong prophets heal me all they should
Let the wine of the poison Jesuses taste good
And all those trees lay down
If you were a bird and fell into my arms
[Chorus]
If I wrote your song in stone
If I wore your wings back home
Would the dreams in the backwater drown us far from harm?
[Verse 3]
Give this to the gray, it comes back gold
Birds of the morning, they may know
Know more than us, giving their hymns for life
