Lyrics

Hummingbird you found me 
Resting on my own
Leave me be I'm colored sad
All the world's forgot me
Left me all alone
Almost it's as if I'm mad

Peel the way the sunset
Think we'll find tomorrow?
Do you think tomorrow's different than today?
Weary of my eyes I've
Tired many tries.
What is it you offer?
I'll take what you offer

So we share a moment
Is this not a sign?
Whistle up a rhyme or melody
Both us move along 
A unity create 
Two is quite a potent remedy

What is it you'll find here?
Why'd you even come here?
What would make you want to stay?
Where is it you're off to
Curious of wonder
Maybe I could join you?
Leave myself behind

Look I sit and witness
Turning of the leaves
Fallen snow and death be had
Stuck here in my roots
Beholden to the breeze
This is why I'm colored sad
If you have the answer
Where I might belong to
Point to where I find my peace

Or leave me for a brighter
A sense of what you're after,
Is not what you're after 
Always just the same?

Hummingbird who share in
Death be all but known,
Flutter into sweeter times.
Tell me that I'll be there
Observed and observing
Father of the future times.
