lyrics :
it’s getting awfully tight
and i Am tired of feeling this way
and if i feel i feel what should i feel
if birds don’t fly straight
its too bad i carry it with me
it is far too late to let it show
hues of night light down in the soft light
and they call to me as they go asunder

six thirty – eight is too far away
last impressions stretched across a field
blowing this way
and they’d tell me birds don’t fly straight
so i will carry it with me
i will carry it with me to think about it

snow doesn’t fall on the ocean
a suicidal man doesn’t hesitate
greater love has nothing to do with devotion
and birds

birds don’t fly straight

and are you watching me from high above
did you lock me away in your heart
and does that love struggle against you
is it , is it fighting against you
and i Am writing you a letter today
it’ll never come , itill never come if i Am tired of feeling this way
so i carry it with me
i will carry it with me

carry it with me
if you think about it

snow doesn’t fall on the ocean
a suicidal man doesn’t hesitate
greater love has nothing to do with devotion
and birds

birds don’t fly straight

snow doesn’t fall on the ocean

and a suicidal man doesn’t , he doesnit hesitate

greater love has nothing to do with devotion

and birds donit fly straight
