Ladybird Lyrics


Hey, Ladybird, ain't it just the way,

the way that love grows cold and then fades away?

Now when he touches you, make no mistake,

the fire's long gone out and the ash has blown away.You don't know how to leave
and you don't know where to fly.

You don't know what you feel

but you know it's not satisfied today.So many little ones, so many mouths,

you've got a lot to feed and you know you don't know how.

Making the best of it, somehow you're making do,

making the best of the days that you stay 

and you wait in this cage they made for you.You don't know how to leave

and you don't know where to fly.

You've got a lot of things to lose, 

so you've got a lot of things to hide.

You know you don't believe

but you know you've got to try today.You know the sweetest wine, it's a witches' brew,

pours like honey down and then burns a hole in you.

Yeah, you may think you're done but you're never through


spitting out the bitterness to get the little sweetness you do.You don't know how to leave

and you don't know where to fly.

You've got a lot of things to lose, 

so you've got a lot of things to hide.

You don't know what you feel

but you know it's not satisfied.

You know you don't believe

but you know you've got to try today.Feel the winter bitterness;

it's heavy on the wind,

coming back again.

Maybe it's time to fly, time to fly away! 

When you gonna spread your wings and fly?
When you gonna fly away?When you gonna fly away?

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Natalie Anne O'Shea Merchant (born October 26, 1963 in Jamestown, New York, U.S.) is a professional musician. She co-founded and fronted the band 10,000 Maniacs in 1981. Later, she went to college and then left the band in 1993 and started a successful solo career. Merchant plays the piano, produces and writes many of her songs.

Her debut solo album Tigerlily (1995) had three top-40 singles: 'Carnival', 'Jealousy' and 'Wonder'. This was followed in 1998 with her second solo album Ophelia, her third in 2001 with Motherland, and fourth in 2003 called 'The House Carpenter's Daughter'.

Merchant has sung alongside Tracy Chapman, Michael Stipe, David Byrne and Peter Gabriel. She has also collaborated with Billy Bragg a number of times, including the 1998 album Mermaid Avenue. Like Bragg, her work touches on social and political themes; she has been active in promoting a number of campaigning issues in both her songs and through the causes to which she lends her name.
