[00:35.50] I couldn't utter my love when it counted
[00:43.93] Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
[00:52.74] I couldn't whisper when you needed it shouted
[01:00.92] Ah, but I'm singing like a bird, 'bout it now
[01:06.13]
[01:09.28] Bites on above
[01:12.49] But never would form
[01:17.77] Like a cry at the final breath that is drawn
[01:25.49] Remember me love, when I'm reborn
[01:35.20] As the shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
[01:43.63]
[01:59.09] And I had no idea on what ground I was found in
[02:07.06] All of that goodness is goin' with you now
[02:14.68] Then when I met you my virtues uncounted
[02:23.14] All of my goodness is goin' with you now
[02:28.96]
[02:32.03] Driving alone, following your form
[02:41.27] Hung like the pelt of some prey you had worn
[02:49.42] Remember me love, when I'm reborn
[02:57.72] As a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
[03:06.48]
[03:38.40] I fled to the city with so much discounted
[03:46.42] Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
[03:54.47] Back to the hedgerows where bodies are mounted
[04:02.35] Ah, but I'm flying like a bird to you now
[04:08.34]
[04:11.12] I was hatched by your warmth
[04:15.00] And I was transformed
[04:20.11] But you're grounded and giving
[04:23.88] And darkening scorn
[04:28.29] Remember me love, when I'm reborn
[04:37.28] As a shrike to your sharp and glorious thorn
