Lissie - A Bird Could Love a Fish

a bird could love a fish

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

chorus:
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

chorus
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

chorus

a bird could love a fish
but where would they live
