Bluebird Letra

Sweetly do, I whisper your name.



Lonely solo taxi ride

to a cheap motel on the wrong side of the tracks.

The facts are tricky to explain.



Cold front bearing down,

blowing in from Birmingham.

By dawn the window's wet with icy rain.



Behind fourteen doors,

a sad parade of paramours

are throwing little white rocks at sorrow's window pane.

Me, I've found someone to love more than the rain.



Salvation Army ringing bell,

kingdom come and wishing wells.

Hey Santa Claus I see your junkie eyes.



It's the devil and the deep blue sea,

with old friends I hope I never see again

all tangled up with misery and lies.



The lonely hiss of passing cars

feeds the ache of ancient scars,

like ghosts beneath my bed rattling chains.



No good luck charm or remedy

ever proved to soothe my sanity

nor bad medicine served to ease my pain.

Had to find someone to love more than the rain.



Now, old habits will die hard.

This pile of junk setting in my yard...

The souvenirs from the wrecking ball of dreams.



You spend a lifetime tearing temples down,

it gets to feel like hallowed ground

is a shallow grave where ne'er the bluebird sings.



Last time home when I played this song,

you said "Dad, it's sad, and way too long."

And I pulled you close and held you in my arms.



Yes, salvation wears a thin disguise

'cause I can see the heaven in your eyes.

And I thank God them years I searched were not in vain...

Finally found someone to love more than the rain.

Bluebird I love you more than the rain.



Bluebird
