Elton John – Birds Lyrics  Share

From Elton John's album: Songs From The West Coast

There^,s some things I don^,t have now
Some things I don^,t talk about
These things are between myself and I
In my thick skull the joker hides

There^,s consequences I^,m scared to taste
Cold hard truths I can^,t face
These days are different than the past
Reflections change in the looking glass

And everywhere I look there^,s something to learn
A sliver of truth from every bridge we burn
A hatful of quarters and a naked song
Don^,t answer the question of where we belong

How come birds
Don^,t fall from the sky when they die?
[ Birds lyrics from
http://www.musiclyricsnow.net/e/elton-john/birds/ ]
How come birds
Always look for a quiet place to hide
These words
Can^,t explain what I feel inside?
Like birds I need a quiet place to hide

These independent moves I make
This confidence I try to fake
You can hear the beating of my heart
But not a feather falling in the dark

And everything I hear never makes any sense
Another old prophet perched on the fence
A cupful of pencils and a self help guru
Don^,t answer the question of what I am to you
