hummingbird, hummingbird
I knew I'd find you here

bright lights draw you near
they always will

all that work and worry just to stay still
 

hummingbird, hummingbird
always on your mind

sweetness you must find
does it get you done

you never reach the sky
and you cannot touch the ground
 

soar, you will never soar
spin or swoop or glide

soar up above us all
in the shadows you must hide
 

soar, you will never soar
spin or swoop or glide

soar up above us all
in the shadows you must hide
 

hummingbird, hummingbird
so you spread your wings

if you forget to sing
you'll lose your song

then where will you go
when all the pretty things have gone
