Sparrows (Full Mix)
Album: My Heart Is A Ballroom
Lyrics
VERSE 1
It took me years to find this place
It was right behind my house
A few square meters of green grace
Nobody's here, no one's around
CHORUS 1
I lie in the grass, the day sings to me
I hear all the sparrows preaching
My fears are so delighted and they're cheerfully playing the strings
Coz, I hear the sparrows preaching
VERSE 2
The world it turns without me when
I talk to that old big oak
And what I strove to understand
I'm finding here when no one's around
CHORUS 2
Like "Who painted the sky?", "What can't be unmade?"
And "Why are the sparrows preaching?"
When a distant thunder rumbles, I'm not afraid
In my heart I hear sparrows preaching
BRIDGE
Oh, I have been to big cities most people dream of
I shook hands with the crème de la crème of the scene
But the magical places where birds sing "you're enough"
I've found in my backyard, in my inner peace
My peace
CHORUS 3
I lie in the grass, the day sings to me
I hear all the sparrows preaching
My fears are so delighted and they're cheerfully playing the strings
Coz, I hear all the sparrows preaching
CODA
Ohh, ohh, mmhhh
