I Saw a Bird Fly Away Lyrics


I asked the habitual party goer,
Just how high she thought she'd get?
And I asked the Ethereal Girls,
(Ethereal Girls)
If they were floating yet?And so I asked the light of the day
"What's this rush for Heaven?"
And I saw a bird fly away and I could not ask againThe tabloid tainted actress knows
The myth of higher ground
The thing she got from playin' a nun
She got from sleepin' aroundAnd so I asked the light of the day
"What's this rush for Heaven?"
And I saw a bird fly away and I could not ask againDo you feelin' the mother [Incomprehensible]
The decaying in my tent?
I wonder whose laughin' atAnd I've been running uphill
Panting, punching at the air
Fighting what's been pushing me down
Like I can't see it thereAnd so I asked the light of the day
"What's this rush for Heaven?"

And I saw a bird fly away and I could not ask againAnd I saw all this climbing, climbing
Just as far from Heaven
And I saw a bird fly away and I started climbing againWhose laughin' at
Do you feelin' the mother [Incomprehensible]
The decaying in my tent?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!

American singer-songwriter Dar Williams lives at the intersection of pop and folk. She fuses many genres (blues, rock, jazz), resulting in a rather organic sound. She has been making music for over a decade. Her studio album My Better Self finds Dar at an unequivocally brazen crossroads. Reflecting on American politics, the disillusionment and apathy of youth, and the female experience, Dar makes no apology for her outspoken beliefs.
