"Bluejays And Cardinals"Bluejays and cardinals all come out to playThe highway traffic gets out of your way Skies clear up if they're overcast Pit bulls are gentle when you come past Stars come out hiding for you And I would too but this world couldn't hold you You slipped free Yeah, this world couldn't hold you You slipped free Without me New sheen all over everything When you open up your mouth to sing Baseballs travel further when you watch them fly Apples fatten on the trees when you walk by You bring something unreplacable to each and every day Or you used to, anyway But this world couldn't hold you And you slipped free Yeah, this world couldn't hold you And you slipped free Without me |
