songbird - the lonely heartstring band lyrics

[chorus]
oh songbird, oh songbird
oh sing me a song
it’s been three whole weeks now
since you’ve come and gone
it’s been three whole weeks now
since i’ve heard your song
oh songbird, oh songbird
what took you so long?

[verse 1]
i’ve flown from the prairies
crossed mountains and streams
i’ve fished on the coastline
and perched in the trees
i’ve seen black smoke arisin’
from a hole in the ground
and the song that it sings
is an unholy sound
the song that it sings
is an unholy sound

[verse 2]
i know you could hear me
if you’d open your ears
some voices have been here
for ten thousand years
the waters once crystal
arе now running black
and the song of the river
will nеver come back
the song of the river
will never come back
[chorus]
oh songbird, oh songbird
oh sing me a song
it’s been six whole weeks now
since you’ve come and gone
it’s been six whole weeks now
since i’ve heard your song
oh songbird, oh songbird
what took you so long?

[verse 3]
i’ve seen your young son
caged in iron and steel
his dreams of great fortune
lie under the fields
his future betrayed
by the promise of gold
no song for his children
when he’s tired and old
no song for his children
when he’s tired and old

[instrumental break]

[verse 4]
my road has been long now
i’m weary from flight
i’ll be on my way
with the morning’s first light
i pray that my voice
has not spoken in vain
even after i leave you
my song will remain
[chorus]
oh songbird, oh songbird
oh sing me a song
it’s been many years now
since you’ve come and gone
it’s been many years now
since i’ve heard your song
oh songbird, oh songbird
what took you so long?
