Glen Hansard - Bird of Sorrow lyrics

rate me

Even if a day feels too long

You feel like you can wait another one

You're slowly givin' up on everything

Love is gonna find you again

Love is gonna find you, you better be ready then

You been kneelin' in the dark for far too long

You've been waitin' for that spark, but it hasn't come

Well I'm callin' to you, please, get off the floor

A good heart will find you again

A good heart will find you, just be ready then

[Hook]

Tethered to a bird of sorrow

A voice that's buried in the hollow

You've given over to self-deceivin'

Your prostrate bowed would not be leavin'

You've squandered more than you could borrow

You've bet your joys on all tomorrows

For the hope of some returnin'

While everything around just burnin'

Come on, we gotta get out, get out of this mess we made

And still for all our talk, we're both so afraid

Well will we leave this up to chance, like we do everything?

Love is gonna find us again

Love is gonna find us, we gotta be ready then

[Hook]

But I'm not leavin' you yet

I'm not leavin' you yet

I'm not leavin'

I'm not leavin', yeah, yeah

I'm not leavin'

I'm not leavin', yeah, yeah

I'm hangin' on

I'm hangin' on

What's gonna come?

I'm hangin' on now

Hangin' on (x6)

With the faith full

I'm with the faith full

I'm hangin' on

What's gonna come?

What's gonna come?

Hangin' on

Hangin' on

The faith full

The faith full
