Hamish Hawk
Birds of Paradise
[Verse]
Can't say I want to hear you
Say anything but words
And should you continue
You'll frighten the birds
Paradise, I'll desert you
I'll run out of mind
I've half a mind to hurt you
Half a mind
[Chorus]
What sounds like Clair de Lune
Has been circling my room
A Red Kite turned to blue
And started singing
And as I turn to you
I find you've up and moved
If I could tell the truth
[Verse]
I'm happy enough to fear you
And I forget quite why
I've no reason to be near you
Or do I?
I saw you soar this morning
I would've cried if I
Weren't already mourning this dying sky
[Chorus]
What sounds like Clair de Lune
Has been circling my room
A Red Kite turned to blue
And started singing
And as I turn to you
I find you've up and moved
If I could tell the truth
I would, wouldn't you?
And you called me the King of Great Wastes of Time
It's to my lonely life that I am clinging
And I said I had been on a never-ending train
And I told you why
I would still will it to delay
