Chase Coy - Mockingbird lyrics

rate me

Summer arrived on the back of a mockingbird

It sang a sweet melody

But couldn't seem to find the right words

I don't know if you've heard

But it's all over town

Yeah they’re buzzing about it now.

I was singing alone when

The mockingbird came to me

Perched on my windowsill

And hummed along quietly

But before long she was singing along

And she said, yeah she said

“I've been waiting so long for these words to come out,

It's practically all I’ve been thinking about

So thank you for finding the words

I couldn't find on my own,

now I'm not alone.”

Autumn was on it's way

summer was on it's way out

The mockingbird told me

"I change with the seasons”

And that she was leaving town

In a few days now

We said our goodbyes

But I secretly wished for more time

The seasons are merciless

*Then* For a while we both stood in silence

Until she said

“I've been waiting so long for these words to come out,

It's practically all I’ve been thinking about

So thank you for finding the words

I couldn't find on my own,

now I'm not alone.”
