Troubles
Scared to death on the first day of spring
Stood a robin who wanted to sing
So he took in the scene of impossible green
Wondering how we should cause such a thing

Had a feeling that love was the word
Unexplained and it's such underheard
Just a flame of a feeling
Hell-bent on revealing
And peeling the song from the bird

Despite all the heartache it brings
My love is a surefire thing
Despite all the heartache it brings
My love is a surefire thing
My love is a surefire thing

Scared to death at the edge of despair
Stood a sparrow beyond all compare
And she glanced through the glid
Where the new lovers played
Wondering why she must stand solitaire

Soon a robin swooped down from his tree
And a sparrow jumped up suddenly
Now honey there's a long, lost love some(where)
Running it's way through the breeze

Despite all the heartache it brings
Our love is a surefire thing
Despite all the heartache it brings
Our love is a surefire thing
Our love is a surefire thing

A rough and tumble
An epic fumble
Improves on silence
All over islands

A rough and tumble
An epic fumble
All over islands
Improves on silence

A rough and tumble
An epic fumble
Improves on silence
All over islands

Despite all the heartache it brings
Our love is a surefire thing
