Lyrics: 

It haunts me, the red leaves
As they wash away the summer tide
And I know I can move too slow
Taken by the darker nights

I won't lie but it's not the time for this
I will wait for the birdsong

Homebound with my feet on the ground
When my wings would be south about now
And I don't wanna face this change
When I'm already drained
And I can't find a way out

I won't lie but it's not the time for this
I will wait for the birdsong

I can store away my fears tonight
But I know that I will always miss this light
And I know that I won't always get it right

I won't lie but it's not the time for this
I will wait for the birdsong
I won't lie but it's not the time for this
I will wait for the birdsong

I'd Wait Again

Birdsong

I want more alone time
But when I get it I get bored 
When you’re gone I have to stop myself 
From buying a ticket out
When you’re here I’m distant
Can’t sleep all weekend

I’m making soup like there’s no tomorrow
Mending a dress like I know how to sew 
Trying to have my Saturday like all the rest
And savour this time at home

I could be out on the road and singing 
My big heart out every night 
Is it healthy to only have one thing
That makes my heart feel alive
 
Apart from you
I’m sorry I don’t sleep and you gotta deal with tears
You
I know that you love me but often I’m not me I disappear
Who
Knows how I’ll wake up 
How much space I’ll take up
I’m sorry I don’t sleep honey
And you gotta deal with me and my muddy mind

I want the best of both worlds
Can I borrow bits of you
And keep the pieces of me too
We’re almost how I tasted us
Easy as apple pie
A windfall myriad
Of what we nearly had

Am I allowed to say it’s painful
When I’ve got love and I’ve got a dream
Talking to positivity to strike a deal
It never quite makes the team

I could be out on a great adventure
People would stop and say you’re glowing dear
But I need to find light in my own home
And feel what it feels like
Without you

I try to stop myself from
Leaving me on the shelf
Like I’m a doll
Or a stuffed toy

And it’s a beautiful thing
Being an animal  
I’m a lion on it’s best and worst nights
But I still don’t know if I’ve got fight

But I’ve got you
I’m sorry I don’t sleep and you gotta deal with tears
You
I know that you love me but often I’m not me I disappear
Who
Knows how I’ll wake up 
How much space I’ll take up
I’m sorry I don’t sleep honey
And you gotta deal with me and my muddy mind

Lyrics:
Crumble to pieces
Then reassemble a different way
Whole new structure, rebuilt from the old frame

My baby, my baby can’t lie
My baby, my baby learn to lie – give it a try

Feel  pain, work out where does it come from
It originates always where you least expect it
You can hold it, now you are the one
Who  possesses warmth, gently now you can direct it
All the times you beat yourself up and ran
With the views of others, always too apologetic 
Mountain pose, feet firm now you’re a fan
Of yourself and what you need
Its you I see protect it

Finally be your sunshine
Finally be your sunshine
Finally be your sunshine
