"Birdsong" lyrics

"Birdsong"

There's an aching inside
Won't you help me escape
From the places I hide
The foreseeable fate

Show me the world
And all the good I don't see
Just want to be heard
Can you do that for me
Can you do that for me

'Cause I've travelled through
Hell and high water to find
A place that I thought to be, lo-oo-ong gone
This feeling of ho-oo-ope
Is something I want to hold

So I'll follow the birdsong
'Til I find my way back home
I'll follow the birdsong
Oh and I can hear them now
Ah oooo-oo-oooo, ah oooo-oo-oooo

Moving so steady
Just like the waves on the shore
Slowly across the sand
Each time more than before

And above there are birds singing high over head
The way that they see the world
When all I see instead
Is the darkness that covers my eyes
One day I'll take to the skies

'Cause I've travelled through
Hell & high water to find
A place that I thought to be, lo-oo-ong gone
This feeling of ho-oo-ope
Is something I want to hold

So I'll follow the birdsong
'Til I find my way back home
I'll follow the birdsong
Oh and I can hear them now
Ah oo-ooo-oo, ah oo-ooooo-oo
