Birds on a wire

We took aim at the wires where the love birds waived
For the sky and the wind to decide their fate
With a steady grip we stretched our bows
Where each one fell there grew a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose
A rose, a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose,
A rose, a rose, a rose, a rose, a rose

We ran through the fields and we bled by the thorns
Stained red windows where our skin was torn
To put an end to the pain we climbed inside
And we raced on our breathe to our hearts till we cried

The heat from our tears
Singed the fields like fire
So we flew
To lovers landing on a wire

Isn’t it enough to make you stay
Giving you a million reasons
You’re still leaving
Isn’t it enough to make you stay
Giving you a million reasons
You’re still leaving

We loved eruptions
Splinters and beads
But they don’t fit here, anymore
I’d give my place up, at the feast
To just not feel, so much hunger
You’re still leaving
You’re still leaving.

Isn’t it enough to make you stay
Giving you a million reasons
You’re still leaving
Isn’t it enough to make you stay
Giving you a million reasons
You’re still leaving

Of all the ways to say goodbye
Why do you make it look so easy
And why do you have to leave me

All the ways to say goodbye
Why do we make it look so easy
And why do you have to leave me

Why do you have to leave me
Baby don’t leave me
