Sparrow Avenue

Ohh
The birds still sing her songs on Sparrow Avenue
Ever since she was born on Sparrow Avenue
And tonight they're a little louder
And the clouds are a little higher on Sparrow Avenue

The setting sun lights up the branches on Sparrow Avenue
And there are no second chances on Sparrow Avenue
What's done is done and she will answer
If there's anyone to answer to on Sparrow Avenue

She never believed in god but she believed in the truth
And what that was we'll never really know
And maybe she never knew on Sparrow Avenue

Oh Oh Oh Oh

The fight was long and hard on Sparrow Avenue
The birds they watched over her heart on Sparrow Avenue
When the daytime turned to dark on Sparrow Avenue
When she teared their limbs a part on Sparrow Avenue

You could only admire her fortitude on Sparrow avenue
Oh oh oh oh oh
Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh oh
Oh
La la la la la la la la la la la
Sparrow

By the time she was eighteen
Her mind was two hundred and five
But no wisdom was great enough
To keep her enemies alive
And tonight the air has an orange hue
And everything looks clean and new

On Sparrow Avenue
The birds memorised her songs
And tonight they sing them for the last time
And it's hot, so hot the tree's are weeping
Or shedding a tear because they know she is sleeping

And a faint smile like no one has ever seen
Painted across her face
She knew love and loss and pain
Not a place she hasn't been
And she soars above, under and through
And so naturally she will make a fool out of you
And the sky
The sky above is purple and blue
A reflection of her battered soul
On Sparrow avenue
Oh oh oh oh
Sparrow
Oh oh oh oh oh
Sparrow
