07 We Used To Be Birds

you look at me; I look at you
we used to be birds
navigating the night together
You come to me; I come to you
we used to be birds
calling out in the sky for each other

Now here we are and no one knows we used to be birds
It's all there in the hinge of your hand, in the way we turn
did you ever wonder why you looked to the sky to find me
I looked for you, too, then one day I knew we used to be birds

you dance with me; I dance with you
we used to be birds
here's a sweet little song to remind us
you say my name; I say your name
we used to be birds
on a branch in the night for the lovers to find us

Now here we are and no one knows we used to be birds
It's all there in the hinge of my hand, in the way we turn
did you ever wonder why you looked to the sky to pray for me
I prayed for you, too, then one day I knew we used to be birds
