Bird in another tree

I'll be down the street doing the laundry
I'll be down the street doing the laundry
I'll be folding up and sorting out some things
Just so you know, if you need me
There's gonna be a little space in between
There's gonna be a little space in between
I'll be dancing on the wire chasing dreams
Just so you know, if you need me

So I sing to my bird
To the beat of my pulse,
"You know, I can't wait forever
On pins and needles."
But lately, forgive me
I've been singing to a bird
In another tree
Oh lately, forgive me
I've been singing to a bird
In another tree

I'll be on the road writing memories
I'll be on the road writing memories
I'll be playing all the mad ones into sleep
Just so you know, if you need me
And maybe I'll fly away on outta sight
Maybe I'm swept away and I don't know why
I'm gonna take it as it comes and wait and see
Just so you know, if you need me

So I sing to my bird
To the beat of my pulse,
"You know, I can't wait forever
On pins and needles."
But lately, forgive me
I've been singing to a bird
In another tree
Oh lately, forgive me
I've been singing to a bird
In another tree

So I sing to my bird
To the beat of my pulse,
"You know it won't last forever,
This time spent apart."
And maybe we'll find
That our dreams intertwine
In the sea, in the valley
You already had me
Maybe we'll find
That we just needed time
To be free
Oh maybe we'll find
That we just needed time
In another tree
