You remember when we were
two beautiful birds
We would
Light up the sky
when we'd fly
You were orange and red like
the sun when it sets
I was green as an apple's eye
You said you loved all
the songs that I'd sing
Like nothing that
you'd ever heard
and I said I loved you
with all of my heart when
We were two beautiful birds
Remember when we were
two beautiful birds
We would sing when the
morning would come
You were silver and blue
like the moon when it's new
I was gold as a summer sun
But one day you asked
for a different song
One that I just couldn't sing
I got the melody sharp
and the words all wrong
Those were the last
days of spring
To build a nest we pecked
feathers from our chests
Like a book tearing
out every page
We weren't to know that
these feathers would grow
Into a beautiful cag
You remember when we were
two beautiful birds
We would
Light up the sky
when we'd fly
You were orange and red like
the sun when it sets
I was green as an apple's eye
You said you loved all
the songs that I'd sing
Like nothing that
you'd ever heard
and I said I loved you
with all of my heart when
We were two beautiful birds
Remember when we were
two beautiful birds
We would sing when the
morning would come
You were silver and blue
like the moon when it's new
I was gold as a summer sun
But one day you asked
for a different song
One that I just couldn't sing
I got the melody sharp
and the words all wrong
Those were the last
days of spring
To build a nest we pecked
feathers from our chests
Like a book tearing
out every page
We weren't to know that
these feathers would grow
