[00:22.31] So sad
[00:23.77] That you took it so badly
[00:27.56] And acted so madly
[00:32.91] So scared
[00:34.41] Like a baby by the morning
[00:38.49] With sunlight unfolding
[00:43.49] Your eyes have turned red
[00:47.24] And are holding me
[00:49.41] Inside your story
[00:54.66] In the end
[00:56.15] You'll be starting on a new one
[00:59.98] Of anguish and delusions
[01:16.81] He smiles
[01:18.46] Just like a magician
[01:21.80] Who's just cast his illusions
[01:27.23] Of castles and sandstones
[01:30.48] On the backbeach
[01:32.67] And bright lights
[01:34.45] Within your reach
[01:38.02] The sounds
[01:39.49] Of a warning
[01:41.40] By the morning
[01:43.41] Of hound dogs coming for me
[01:48.43] With the ropes
[01:50.90] Leading back to your knees
[01:54.33] And you lookin' straight at me
[01:59.72] On your knees in the rain
[02:01.18] With a basket of flowers
[02:03.33] Just for me
[02:06.39] As the bells in the trees up above
[02:09.22] All swung and rang softly
[02:13.24] You said you rang them for me
[02:16.90] For me
[04:08.67] Come back baby bird
[04:11.96] With your dirty wings in tatters
[04:16.89] Come home where you belong
[04:19.98] Nobody knows you better
[04:25.10] Now bring back your velvet heart
[04:28.07] And we'll make you brand new feathers
[04:33.96] Sleep through the morning light
[04:36.29] With your arms around your brother
[04:39.90] Baby bird
[04:43.96] Come back home
[04:48.10] Baby bird
[04:51.89] You were never really on your own
[04:57.67] Now outside faces cry
[05:00.92] With the tears of lonesome orphans
[05:05.89] And behind every mask
[05:09.96] is the face of another
[05:14.23] Wherever you have been
[05:17.84] wherever you took cover
[05:22.00] No arms that pulled you in
[05:25.42] could hold you like your mother
[05:29.27] Baby bird
[05:33.29] Come back home
[05:37.40] Baby bird
[05:41.19] You were never really on your own
[06:03.44] When all my colors fade
[06:06.89] And my wings, they've turned to leather
[06:11.65] I'll know the reasons why
[06:14.66] God let me get older
[06:19.69] When all my days are through
[06:23.48] And I fly these hills no longer
[06:27.86] I'll lay beneath the stars
[06:31.24] And I'll watch you flying over
[06:34.68] Baby bird
[06:38.70] Come back home
[06:42.83] Baby bird
[06:46.71] You were never really on your own
[06:50.92] Baby bird
[06:55.03] Come back home
[06:59.09] Baby bird
[07:03.07] You will never be all alone
