Tom Waits – Fish & Bird Lyrics 
Share
(Tom Waits/Kathleen Brennan)
They bought a round for the sailor
And they heard his tale
Of a world that was so far away
And a song that we,d never heard
A song of a little bird
That fell in love with a whale
He said, ,You cannot live in the ocean,
And she said to him
,You never can live in the sky,
But the ocean is filled with tears
And the sea turns into a mirror
There,s a whale in the moon when it,s clear
And a bird on the tide
Please don,t cry
Let me dry your eyes

So tell me that you will wait for me
Hold me in your arms
I promise we never will part
I,ll never sail back to the time
But I,ll always pretend you,re mine
Though I know that we both must part
You can live in my heart
Please don,t cry
Let me dry your eyes
And tell me that you will wait for me
Hold me in your arms
I promise we never will part
I,ll never sail back to the time
But I,ll always pretend that you,re mine
I know that we both must part
You can live in my heart
