Innocence Mission - Birdless

Tekst :

Something will shine in the backyard.
Blue lanterns. Or Saint Gerard,
Who was lost in the snow.

Something will shine on the ground.
My Father will bend His ear to the ground.

When we are lost in Carlisle,
When we are birdless,
Flowerless in the spring
And we cannot sing.

Oh Father John in the driveway,
When we walk out he will bless us,
With his hands on our heads.

All down the sidewalk there are these
Chalk ballerinas the neighbours
Drew with arms to the sky.

When we are lost in Carlisle,
When we are birdless,
Flowerless in the spring
And we cannot sing.

Where are we going tomorrow,
Where are we going?
Oh I can only say we will be found.

Something will shine in the backyard.
Blue lanterns. Or Saint Gerard.
Who was lost in the snow.

  • Look for me as you go by
  • Since i still tell you my every day
  • I hear you say so
  • Going away
  • The girl on my left
  • Rhode island
  • Christ is my hope
  • Lake shore drive
  • Our Harry
  • No storms come
  • Keeping awake
  • Go
  • I left the grounds
  • Smalltoen blues
  • One for sorrow, two for joy

    Harlem

    Riding through Harlem in my
    bullet proof car
    Inside a glass shell you say
    keeps us from harm
    My music’s playing loudly
    and people gather ‘round
    They wonder what we’re doing
    in their part of town

    I try to reach out,...

    May the rain

    May the rain keep fallin on your head
    I ll make you pay for all the tears i ve bled
    May you die alone in your bed
    Baby one day you will wake up dead

    But every time you talk to me and-
    You whisper dirty words to me and-...

    Stay in school

    [Spoken]
    Hi, this is the big O, Otis Redding
    I was just standing here thinking about you
    Thought I d write a song about you
    And dedicate it to you
    Take a listen

    [Sung]
    If you didn t go back to school...

    Kubrick

    Take your time, your time your time, everybodyknow you will never be like this, don t be worried worried worried, everybody know you will never be like this, it s my tribute to a master of his art, I think he was the one there s no many of his...

    Sam

    I heard that you re on your own now, so am I, I m living alone now
    I was wrong, so were you, what will you do?
    Are you glad to be free, are you feeling lost just like me, longing for company

    Chorus:
    Oh Sam, Sam, you know...
