Hummingbird
I'm headed for the treeline
Where the only thing they love
Is what you live
And what you die for
No code within my pocket
Or a promise in my head
Just what I've lived
And what I've lied for
Hummingbird, say the word
I'll climb high enough to reach you
And my stronger hand will grasp the branch you're on
And if I fall, at least I'll fall
On the moss beneath your cedar
Where your roots begin to peter
And my body will become your leaves by dawn
I wonder if I will recall
The world as I could bear it
If only I'd not thought at all
What's seen is what's worth sharing
The crush of pine, the climbing arbor
The perfect snow, the piping water
I often wish I'd said goodbye
But a wish is mere misgiving
Hummingbird, say the word
I'll climb high enough to reach you
And my stronger hand will grasp the branch you're on
And if I fall, at least I'll fall
On the moss beneath your cedar
Where your roots begin to peter
And my body will become your leaves by dawn
Hummingbird, say the word
Maybe I'll come back soon
Maybe I'll come back soon
Where the only thing they love
Is what you live
And what you die for
No code within my pocket
Or a promise in my head
Just what I've lived
And what I've lied for
Hummingbird, say the word
I'll climb high enough to reach you
And my stronger hand will grasp the branch you're on
And if I fall, at least I'll fall
On the moss beneath your cedar
Where your roots begin to peter
And my body will become your leaves by dawn
I wonder if I will recall
The world as I could bear it
If only I'd not thought at all
What's seen is what's worth sharing
The crush of pine, the climbing arbor
The perfect snow, the piping water
I often wish I'd said goodbye
But a wish is mere misgiving
Hummingbird, say the word
I'll climb high enough to reach you
And my stronger hand will grasp the branch you're on
And if I fall, at least I'll fall
On the moss beneath your cedar
Where your roots begin to peter
And my body will become your leaves by dawn
Hummingbird, say the word
Maybe I'll come back soon
Maybe I'll come back soon
