Black and Blue Bird Lyrics

[00:14.87] If I could fly at the speed of light
[00:17.75] I could get to Canis Major in five thousand years
[00:21.82] Butterflies and black and blue birds
[00:24.70] I'll never be the same since I met you girl
[00:28.75] Pennies thrown into a fountain
[00:31.91] Make a wish, blow out the candles, take a breath
[00:35.48] God is troubling when you consider
[00:38.61] Believers that would welcome the end of the world
[00:42.86] Got a job and it pays me
[00:46.68] I want love more than I deserve
[00:50.39] I read the paper, makes me crazy
[00:54.67] Gotta be a way to make it work, oh
[00:58.50] Ashes, stardust
[01:02.23] Look at us, climbing out the mud
[01:05.61] Let's go, 'round the block
[01:08.52] We'll make the most, before the jig is up
[01:12.88] Dreamers, the big top
[01:15.90] High wires, the circus never stop
[01:19.75] Ashes, stardust
[01:23.05] Look at you, crawling out the mud
[01:32.65] I know that dying is scary to us
[01:35.65] But everybody do it, one, two, three
[01:39.68] On the sidewalk, the dandelion is reaching from a crack up to the sun
[01:46.72] Words can be a wicked tool
[01:49.32] For twisting truth
[01:50.93] I wanna be true to you
[01:53.58] Blood and bones, black holes and stones
[01:56.93] All those things paved the way for you and me
[02:00.50] Got a job and it pays me
[02:04.52] I want love more than I deserve
[02:08.43] The headlines, they make me crazy
[02:12.68] Gotta be a way to make it work, 'cause
[02:16.78] Ashes, stardust
[02:20.15] Look at us crawling out the mud
[02:23.50] Let's go around the block
[02:26.64] We'll make the most before the jig is up
[02:30.67] Campfire, high rise
[02:33.96] You never did quite know when to stop
[02:37.65] Ashes, stardust
[02:41.23] Look at me crawling out the mud
[02:43.73]
[03:00.65] Butterflies and black and blue birds
[03:03.74] I'll never be the same since I met you
[03:07.30] If I could fly at the speed of light
[03:10.66] I could get to Betelgeuse in about 600 years
[03:14.87] Butterflies and black and blue birds
[03:20.01]
