๐ Lyrics
Two songbirds on opposite branches
Calling out to the morning
Though their wings retired and their feathers blind to each other
Their voices fly, their voices fly
How can we leave when this old tree is all that we've known, oh
How can we turn away when the burls and knots have always been home?
What's to doubt with all other beaks pointing south?
And every fainting leaf blankets ground
Tell me what am I to you?
Just a speck in the big wild blue?
Oh no, that's not true
Now let's harmonize our sorrows and sighs
And brace for the winter gloom
Two songbirds on opposite branches
Calling out to the morning
Though their wings retired and their feathers blind to each other
Their voices fly, their voices fly
Now do we grieve?
Caught between two worlds on fire
What do we cling to now
When the tongue's cut out of the timbered choir?
Did we miss the moment to hitch ourselves to the lightning vein? oh
Did we miss the moment that never came?
Tell me what are we supposed to do?
Plunging into the starless flume
Oh it can't be true
We'll leave our hearts impressed on the peregrine crest
And wait for the daylight new
Two songbirds on opposite branches
Calling out to the morning
Though their wings retired and their feathers blind to each other
Their voices fly, their voices fly
Calling out to the morning
Their voices fly, their voice fly
Calling out to the morning
Though their wings retired and their feathers blind to each other
Their voices fly, their voices fly
How can we leave when this old tree is all that we've known, oh
How can we turn away when the burls and knots have always been home?
What's to doubt with all other beaks pointing south?
And every fainting leaf blankets ground
Tell me what am I to you?
Just a speck in the big wild blue?
Oh no, that's not true
Now let's harmonize our sorrows and sighs
And brace for the winter gloom
Two songbirds on opposite branches
Calling out to the morning
Though their wings retired and their feathers blind to each other
Their voices fly, their voices fly
Now do we grieve?
Caught between two worlds on fire
What do we cling to now
When the tongue's cut out of the timbered choir?
Did we miss the moment to hitch ourselves to the lightning vein? oh
Did we miss the moment that never came?
Tell me what are we supposed to do?
Plunging into the starless flume
Oh it can't be true
We'll leave our hearts impressed on the peregrine crest
And wait for the daylight new
Two songbirds on opposite branches
Calling out to the morning
Though their wings retired and their feathers blind to each other
Their voices fly, their voices fly
Calling out to the morning
Their voices fly, their voice fly
