songbird

most everyone i know leaves new york on holidays, the fourth of july, is a little lonely here, and a little holy, fireworks out on the river, and the boys all drinking beer, sing hallelujah for the year, hallelujah for the year, hallelujah for the year, there's a songbird in my tree, i don't know where it leads, but i believe it sings it's song for me, and never sees the things i see, oh and i can dream, for the rest of my life, for the rest of my life, hideaway, the freezing days, and when the sun returns, i will have learned to sing, your haunting melody, you'll take the notes and harmonize me, and bring me back to hallelujah, for the rest of my life, hallelujah
