hummingbird Lyrics by Carly Pearce
The wind is like memory, the pieces in the night
Waitin’ for the moment that you got us compromised
It don’t care if you’re sleepin’
It don’t care if you’re drunk
It knows the secrets you’re keepin’
No matter when you wake up
Ooh, when the rain gets poured
The river don’t run to an old love story
Ooh, and the train don’t stop
‘Cause the tracks get tired of the way it talks
The sun don’t burn down the whole damn sky
Just ’cause the moon ain’t on his side
Ooh, and the hummingbird flies on by ’cause it hates goodbye
And so do I
The heart forgets the battles but remembers who he was
No scientists can calculate the ratio of love
It don’t know when it’s beaten
It don’t know when it’s dead
It’s just tired of keepin’ me out of my head
Ooh, when the rain gets poured
The river don’t run to an old love story
Ooh, and the train don’t stop
‘Cause the tracks get tired of the way it talks
The sun don’t burn down the whole damn sky
Just ’cause the moon ain’t on his side
Ooh, and the hummingbird flies on by ’cause it hates goodbye
And so do I
Leaves don’t know why they’re fallin’
Trees don’t know why they stand
The song don’t know why it started
And I’m just that way
Ooh, when the rain gets poured
The river don’t run to an old love story
Ooh, and the train don’t stop
‘Cause the tracks get tired of the way it talks
The sun don’t burn down the whole damn sky
Just ’cause the moon ain’t on his side
Ooh, and the hummingbird flies on by ’cause it hates goodbye
And so do I, I, I, I
And so do I, I, I, I
