Devin Davis - Turtle and the Flightless Bird lyrics

Awake through the sound of the sad city sleeping I turned around to find out who was speaking But there was no one there After a while, I arrived at a pile of feathers Crying in all capital letters With a big white sling on her wing And two geysers where her eyes were "We may not live up in the sky Where the air gets scared when the planes go by But you can hop up on my shell When we crawl across the highway" Yeah, we were two rocks when you strike them together I told her that I would like nothing better Yeah, nothing in the world than to just lie around 'Neath the blackberry towers We could keep talking on and on for hours About how the wind goes "doo-doo-doo-to-doo" We may not live up in the sky Where the air gets scared when the planes go by But you can hop up on my shell When we crawl across the highway Cause we might get flattened today But at least we lived here long enough to say "hey hey, you're the one for me" The night you gave that kiss to me I cracked the ancient mystery And on the day that you ran away I touched the tail of the bumblebee Darlin' girl, no it's just not right Drinking ourselves to sleep at night Won't you ever come back to me? I haven't got what it takes to wait and see "We may not live up in the sky Where the air gets scared when the planes go by But you can hop up on my shell When we crawl across the highway" "We may not live up in the sky Where the air gets scared when the planes go by But you can hop up on my shell When we crawl across the highway" "We may not live up in the sky Where the air gets scared when the planes go by But you can hop up on my shell When we crawl across the highway"
