A Bird Could Love a Fish - Lissie

Frozen like December

Underwater I remember

The words that you wrote me

In a bottle that you emptied

With my breath held

Tried to try it

But so deep down

Its too quiet

And my wings were wet and sticky

My lungs empty

Much too quickly

When you and me

Are hardly breathing

Go back, back to the water

Go back to the sea

I go back to the sky

Treetops, sun is shining

And my nest is so inviting

And my perch calls

Me back there

But your school swims

Gotta get gone

All your cool friends

Think it’s all wrong

I could catch you

Couldn’t keep you

We inhabit

Our own blues

When you and me

Are hardly breathing

Go back, back to the water

Go back to the sea

I go back to the sky

And fly fly fly

All I ever wanted was to find a home

That fishy you and I

We could call our own

But in this here lifetime

Well it will never be

Its not in our destiny

Frozen like December

Underwater I remember

The way that I loved you

And I know that you loved me too

When you and me

Are hardly breathing

Go back, back to the water

Go back to the sea

I go back to the sky

A bird could love a fish

But where would they live
