[00:00.00]Bird on a String - Nikki Kummerow
[00:06.38]Oh sweet sorrow
[00:08.18]
[00:10.59]My heart longs for you
[00:13.29]
[00:17.93]For your sting is harsh but your burdens are few
[00:22.89]
[00:27.00]You've warned my soul
[00:29.72]
[00:31.46]Time and time again
[00:33.53]
[00:38.98]I don't know why I let you go then
[00:45.18]
[00:49.15]I caught a glimpse
[00:51.35]
[00:51.91]And I stumbled in its wake
[00:54.29]
[00:55.07]Closing my eyes to consequence and change
[00:59.81]
[01:01.07]Hope for all time
[01:02.65]
[01:04.03]It's always the same
[01:06.39]
[01:11.43]We all know the trouble still remains
[01:17.35]
[01:26.27]I am but a bird on a string
[01:30.22]
[01:32.16]Arms out stretched as the walls cave in
[01:36.51]
[01:37.89]So take these thoughts I'd rather not mourn
[01:43.19]
[01:48.63]And I will fly away off into the dawn
[01:53.74]
[01:58.92]Where are my words
[02:00.86]
[02:04.76]Where are my words
[02:06.80]
[02:09.22]I've left them on the lips of angels high and heard
[02:14.71]
[02:18.09]So that they might whisper
[02:20.31]
[02:22.54]Something sweet to God
[02:24.66]
[02:29.98]That he might have mercy
[02:31.85]
[02:32.82]On me and my heart
[02:34.35]
[02:44.87]I am but a bird on a string
[02:48.89]
[02:50.58]Delivering a song to the one without wings
[02:55.49]
[02:56.36]So take these thoughts I'd rather not mourn
[03:01.78]
[03:07.07]And I will fly away off into the dawn
[03:12.14]
[03:47.01]I will surrender
[03:48.26]
[03:52.97]Old love like new
[03:54.71]
[04:00.34]Daylight brings slumber
[04:02.20]
[04:04.81]It never brought me you
[04:06.88]
[04:10.69]My heart now sleeps
[04:12.84]
[04:15.03]You've opened up my eyes
[04:17.39]
[04:22.43]I'll remember you for the rest of my life
[04:28.14]
[04:29.92]I'll remember you for the rest of my life
[04:34.28]
[04:37.44]I'll remember you for the rest of my life
