lyrics

Above, above the natural law
In the most volatile state of all
Constantly seething, forever reaching
Through and around the world you found

When you appeared here
It all felt so real here
Though impossibly vast, moving so fast
The wind in the leaves and the buzzing of the bees

You were my humm-humm-hummingbird heart
At the flower of your new life

The creatures were so amazed
Your every wish they obeyed
The birds leapt into your hands and the birds could understand Your song so strong out of tune but never wrong

And you were always tattooing to your heart
Every person, every minute left its mark
And that lifestyle worked, though it often hurt
And though you wanted more and more you found you had to shut the door

Of your humm-humm-hummingbird heart
At the flower of your new life

And now the falling of a star makes you weep
Through the open window in your dream
Of a stillborn room, life a bud that didn’t bloom
You write songs like maps but they never take you back

And so you push against the border
And you reach for spiritual order
Pouring honey in the cake, you count the wishes you make But you’re always looking up to fill up the cup

Of your humm-humm-hummingbird heart
Humm-humm-hummingbird heart
Humm-humm-hummingbird heart
At the flower of your new life
