Sparrow Songtext
von Branches

I feel like an echo waiting
For a voice of it′s own
I am waiting in the darkness
For a word to take me home
I feel like a broken shadow
That is long since overgrown
The skeleton that's kept my memories
Written in it′s bones

If your eye is on the sparrow
If you're worried about the dove
Have you heard all of my shouting?
Will you come down from above?
If your eye is on the sparrow
If you're worried about the bird
Did you get all of my letters?
Did you read my troubled words?


I feel like a dried up fountain
Waiting for rain to fall
To fill the cracks and holes and see if there is
Hope for me at all
I feel like an empty inkwell
With nothing left to say
Cause all the letters that I wrote to you have
All been thrown away

If your eye is on the sparrow
If you′re worried about the dove
Have you heard all of my shouting?
Will you come down from above?
If your eye is on the sparrow
If you′re worried about the bird
Did you get all of my letters?
Did you read my troubled words?

But if your eye is on the sparrow
If you're worried about its wings
Then I′m a fool to think that you ignore
The worries that I sing
Rather if I hear an echo
And if the shadow's there
Then you must be on the other end
To make these things appear


Oh oh
Oooh
Oh oh
Oooh
Oh oh
Oooh
Oh oh
Oooh

Oh, I sing because I′m happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And he watches over me
Oh, I sing because I′m happy
I sing because I'm free
His eye is on the sparrow
And he watches over me
