hummingbird

alex clare

take what you need

and leave the rest

no i don't mind

no i don't mind

i'll get this off my chest

there's nowhere else i'd rather be. come flying in

and then again

i'm not here long enough to pretend that i seem so well

there's nowhere else you'd rather be. like a hummingbird in flight you are

hovering

hovering 'round me

and i move near

you fly away. like a hummingbird in flight you are

hovering

hovering near me

as i move near

you fly away. don't fly away

what can i say

you have to wait

you find it hard to say and to articulate

i know there's nowhere else you'd rather be. it seems so clear

i know we're through

yet all i wanna do is make love to you

i know there's nowhere else you'd rather be. like a hummingbird in flight you are

hovering

hovering near me

as i move near

you fly away. like a hummingbird in flight you are

hovering

hovering near me

as i move near

you fly away. don't fly away

buzzing around my head

things you have done

the words you have said. remember me

after you've left

i'll try but i can't forget. like a hummingbird in flight you are

hovering

hovering 'round me

as i move near

you fly away. like a hummingbird in flight you are

hovering

hovering 'round me

as i move near

you fly away. don't fly away
