Bird On The Wing

I spent all my time,
doing everything but you
So when you say that you're leavin'
I know that it's true

It's useless to say that I've tried
cuz, that would be only lies

You'd think that I'd learn
because, I've done this before
I get a wonderful woman
and it's her I ignore

It's nothing that's wrong with you girl
It's just that I live in my own world

Like water through my fingers,
sand through the hourglass
light through an aperture,
you too will pass from my life like a bird on the wing
for the stupid things I'm doing

now that your gone
I've got time on my hands
and, all those things I was doing
seem nowhere as grand

Time's dragging on for forever
And now I don't feel I'm so clever

Like water through my fingers,
sand through the hourglass
light through an aperture,
you too will pass from my life like a bird on the wing
for the stupid things I'm doing

Times dragging on
now that your gone
I'll sing a song
hope it won't be too long

Like water through my fingers,
sand through the hourglass
light through an aperture,
you too will pass from my life like a bird on the wing
for the stupid things I'm doing
