Bird Of The World

In my loneliness
In my loneliness
I know there's nothing but her I need

Stare into her eyes
But all I see are skies
She's the kind of breed that has to move on to feed

And I can almost hear my mama now
Shouting out to say:
She's a bird of the world
Let her fly away

These are desperate times
All these lemon and limes
Taste so bitter
And bitter is mine, all mine

Now I'm about to fall
I can't touch her at all
Soon she'll be gone
And gone is a long, long timе

Well, I went and took my chances
I got caught up in thе branches
But she's a bird of the world
Let her fly away

She's a bird of the world
She knows what she wants to do
She'll find something, somehow
Somewhere across the blue

Restless is my bed
Remembering what she said
With lips of fire
Confusion was in my head

Now we'll turn our backs
And now I'm going back
Back to school
Back to the simple facts

Well, I can almost hear my mama now
Shouting out to say:
She's a bird of the world
Let her fly away
She's a bird of the world
Let her fly away
She's a bird of the world
Let her fly away

Let her fly fly fly away
Let her fly fly fly away
Let her fly fly fly away
Oh yay, oh yay
