White Sparrows Lyrics


Today I walked down our old street
Past the diner where we'd meet
Now I dine alone in our old seats
The cold wind blows right through my bones
And I feel like I'm getting old
But I wish I was getting old with youI held your hand when
We took shelter from the rain
She laughed as we picked out
Our children's namesWhite sparrows fell from heaven
And carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart
I kneel and prayHer clothes hang in the closet still
The phone sits on the windowsill
And every time it rings, it gives me chills
My heart just stopped when I was told
Doctor, doctor, on the phone
Said my love was never coming homeI hold your casket gently
Walking to the grave

Dark clouds eclipse
The sun won't shine againWhite sparrows fell from heaven
And carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart
I kneel and prayThey gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn't say
I'm crying in pain, crying in painAnd I'm not looking for answers
No, I'm not looking for answers
But dear God, why did You choose her?White sparrows fell from heaven
And carried her away
Black arrows cut the strings of my heart
I kneel and prayThey gave her one more day
To say the words I couldn't say
I'm crying in pain, crying in pain
Our love will remain, I'm crying in pain

Billy Talent is a Juno Award-winning Canadian rock band formed in 1993. They performed and recorded together for about a decade before finding a wide mainstream following. Originally called Pezz, the group originates from Streetsville, in Mississauga, Ontario, but now hail from Toronto, Ontario.

The name is inspired by a character named "Billy Tallent" in the 1993 book "Hard Core Logo" by Michael Turner (filmed in 1996) and it has been the name of the band since 2001, after a dispute with the American Pezz.

To date, the band have released five studio albums, the first under the name Pezz named "Watoosh!", the second under the Billy Talent name is called "Billy Talent" with the third called "Billy Talent II". The fourth album,"Billy Talent III", released in 2009, was produced by Brendan O'Brien, who previously worked with AC/DC, Rage Against the Machine, Pearl Jam and The Offspring, among others.
The fifth album called "Dead Silence" was released in september 2012.

Billy Talent have also released a live DVD/CD, "666" featuring live performances from London, Dusseldorf, and the Rock Am Ring festival, held at the Nürburgring in Germany. They have also released two live albums from London and Manchester in September of 2006, of which only 500 of each exist.

Drummer Aaron Solowoniuk revealed that the song "This Is How It Goes" was written for him by Ben with the subject being Aaron's struggle with multiple sclerosis, in an open letter to fans posted on the official website in March 2006. As a sign of the dedication to finding a cure for MS, the band hold an annual show in Canada named "F.U.MS" in which all funds go towards the Multiple Sclerosis Society of Canada.
