[00:00.38] The Birds ―― Elbow
[00:02.90]
[00:04.42]
[00:27.34] The birds are the keepers of our secret
[00:40.47] As they saw us where we lay
[00:47.27] In the deepest grass of springtime
[00:57.83] In a reckless guilty haze
[01:04.41] And they wove a sweet indifference
[01:14.76] And it settled on our skin
[01:21.46] Till the eyes that I remembered
[01:31.80] For the last time drew me in
[01:42.77] The birds, though I wore your glacial patience
[01:56.05] To a smudge of bitter dust
[02:02.71] On the last day you embraced me
[02:12.92] With a glistening sapling trust
[02:19.91] Did they sing a million blessings
[02:30.10] As they watched us slowly part?
[02:37.01] Do they keep those final kisses
[02:47.93] In their tiny racing hearts
[02:55.88]
[04:01.30] What are we gonna do with you?
[04:03.91] Same tale every time
[04:07.89] What are we gonna do with you?
[04:10.54] Come on inside
[04:14.80] Looking back is for the birds
[04:18.13] What are we gonna do with you?
[04:21.07] Same tale every time
[04:25.10] What are we gonna do with you?
[04:27.77] Come on inside
[04:32.10] Looking back is for the birds
[04:35.38] What are we gonna do with you?
[04:38.29] Same tale every time
[04:42.27] What are we gonna do with you?
[04:45.02] Come on inside
[04:49.25] Looking back is for the birds
