Bird Stealing Bread Letra

Watching the windows close?

I've not seen you lately

On the street by the beach

Or places we used to go



I've a picture of you

On our favorite day

By the seaside

There's a bird stealing bread

That I brought

Out from under my nose



Tell me, baby, tell me

Does his company make

Light of a rainy day?

How I've missed you lately

And the way we would speak

And all that we wouldn't say



Do his hands in your hair

Feel a lot like a thing

You believe in

Or a bit like a bird

Stealing bread

Out from under your nose?



Tell me, baby, tell me

Do you carry the words

Around like a key or change?

I've been thinking lately

Of a night on the stoop

And all that we wouldn't say



If I see you again

On the street by the beach

In the evening

Will you fly like a bird

Stealing bread

Out from under my nose?
