Songbird - Ben Abraham

There are places that

I remember

You sung in the night

And it turned into day

Well they're saying

That you have gone quiet

They say that you hide your love away

But they don't know you

The way that

I know you

With your little vices

They are fencing you in

And all of the others

Those girls and their circles

If you could see in their eyes

When you start to sing

You're a songbird

And we ain't seen nothing

We ain't seen nothing

Little songbird

Don't hide it away

Show your heart to the world

And never stop singing

Don't you ever stop singing

One of these days

You'll believe when we say

You're a songbird

God made you that way

Time changes things

It moves like a freight train

And I know that time

Hasn't always been kind

Oh and all of the others

Those boys and their circles and their circles again

If they could see the fire in your eyes

Every time that you sing

You're a songbird

And we ain't seen nothing

And we ain't seen nothing nothing at all

Little songbird

Don't hide it away

Show your heart to the world

And never stop singing

Don't you ever stop singing

One of these days

You'll believe when we say

You're a songbird

God made you that way

He made you that way

So show us what you're made of

Show us what you're made of

Show us what you're made of

Show us what you're made of

And one of these days

You'll believe when we say

You're a songbird

God made you that way
