I'll be down the street doing the laundry I'll be down the street doing the laundry I'll be folding up and sorting out some things Just so you know, if you need me There's gonna be a little space in between There's gonna be a little space in between I'll be dancing on the wire chasing dreams Just so you know, if you need me So I sing to my bird To the beat of my pulse, "You know, I can't wait forever On pins and needles." But lately, forgive me I've been singing to a bird In another tree Oh lately, forgive me I've been singing to a bird In another tree I'll be on the road writing memories I'll be on the road writing memories I'll be playing all the mad ones into sleep Just so you know, if you need me And maybe I'll fly away on outta sight Maybe I'm swept away and I don't know why I'm gonna take it as it comes and wait and see Just so you know, if you need me So I sing to my bird To the beat of my pulse, "You know, I can't wait forever On pins and needles." But lately, forgive me I've been singing to a bird In another tree Oh lately, forgive me I've been singing to a bird In another tree So I sing to my bird To the beat of my pulse, "You know it won't last forever, This time spent apart." And maybe we'll find That our dreams intertwine In the sea, in the valley You already had me Maybe we'll find That we just needed time To be free Oh maybe we'll find That we just needed time In another tree
