Bird of Paradise
Feels like I'm on holiday
Down on action
But up against some gentle shore
I always took this for granted
And now you try and take control
Stake out all your sand
I wished that I had not seen this world I'd uncovered
I found it on a paper thin
Moment of sound faith
But I'd never really noticed till now that I need it
And as my dispositions mixing up
With the salt in the air
I wished that I had not seen this world I'd uncovered
Cos If I could talk that fast I would
If I could fill my cup, I'm good
Somebody take me back, to that feeling
Know if I just knew that I would
And it descended the night entirely
It reached down on me
And in a long distance state of mind
I confide, in a bird of paradise
Could I float off like a dragon fly
Through the salt in the air
Or learn to be ok with this world as it is
And If I could talk that fast I would
Somebody fill my cup, I should
And If it hurts that much, don't fight it
Know If I just knew that
It was left outside some time ago
In the pouring rain a cardboard cutout of you
But in a desperate state of mind you'll find
Time moves slow
Cos If I could talk that fast I would
And If I could fill my cup, I'm good
Somebody take me back, to that feeling
Know if I just knew that I would
Down on action
But up against some gentle shore
I always took this for granted
And now you try and take control
Stake out all your sand
I wished that I had not seen this world I'd uncovered
I found it on a paper thin
Moment of sound faith
But I'd never really noticed till now that I need it
And as my dispositions mixing up
With the salt in the air
I wished that I had not seen this world I'd uncovered
Cos If I could talk that fast I would
If I could fill my cup, I'm good
Somebody take me back, to that feeling
Know if I just knew that I would
And it descended the night entirely
It reached down on me
And in a long distance state of mind
I confide, in a bird of paradise
Could I float off like a dragon fly
Through the salt in the air
Or learn to be ok with this world as it is
And If I could talk that fast I would
Somebody fill my cup, I should
And If it hurts that much, don't fight it
Know If I just knew that
It was left outside some time ago
In the pouring rain a cardboard cutout of you
But in a desperate state of mind you'll find
Time moves slow
Cos If I could talk that fast I would
And If I could fill my cup, I'm good
Somebody take me back, to that feeling
Know if I just knew that I would
