Cardinal Song
A tin roof rain drizzle sings songs like a cardinal
Talking to his best friend he ain't seen in a while
Weather man says storms coming you better go in
But he's busy munching on worms talking to his old friend
Somethings never matter, when you are born to fly
Currents ripping heavy, tired pulling in fierce
Red flags are up and the lifeguards are grabbing chairs
They tell all the tourists to hold back their swims
But the turtles laid her eggs and now she's going out again
Some things never mattered when you were born to provide
Mothers and daughters, fathers and sons
Were all born with life and we live running on love
But how you gonna keep loving when your time is over
When your old friend fly's far or the currents pulling closer
Well there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
Yeah there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
Well the whole towns got to get out, smokes rolling in
Fires on the ridge line grab the dog and the kids
The elk keep on moving just trying to stay sane
Cause where you gonna go when everything you own
Is going up in flames
Well somethings have never mattered when you were born to walk the fire
Mothers and daughters, fathers and sons
Were all born with life and we live running on love
But how you gonna keep loving when your time is over
When your old friend fly's far or the currents pulling closer
Well there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
Yeah there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
Talking to his best friend he ain't seen in a while
Weather man says storms coming you better go in
But he's busy munching on worms talking to his old friend
Somethings never matter, when you are born to fly
Currents ripping heavy, tired pulling in fierce
Red flags are up and the lifeguards are grabbing chairs
They tell all the tourists to hold back their swims
But the turtles laid her eggs and now she's going out again
Some things never mattered when you were born to provide
Mothers and daughters, fathers and sons
Were all born with life and we live running on love
But how you gonna keep loving when your time is over
When your old friend fly's far or the currents pulling closer
Well there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
Yeah there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
Well the whole towns got to get out, smokes rolling in
Fires on the ridge line grab the dog and the kids
The elk keep on moving just trying to stay sane
Cause where you gonna go when everything you own
Is going up in flames
Well somethings have never mattered when you were born to walk the fire
Mothers and daughters, fathers and sons
Were all born with life and we live running on love
But how you gonna keep loving when your time is over
When your old friend fly's far or the currents pulling closer
Well there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
Yeah there's nothing you can do because we were all born to die
