Birds of a Feather

from This is it. by Rachel Ziolkowski

/

lyrics

I was a child, you were a man
Or so the prospects seemed to stand.
We hid together from the rain.

Your eyes refuse to melt,
But there was something to be felt
When you chose me again and again.

You didn't want me, but you wanted to go together.
Oh, what a pair we make, birds of a feather.
All along, you should have known better.

The jokes that you told,
Well, they're starting to grow old,
And I manufacture a laugh.

You fade away,
Like the stars, like you say.
I forget that we cannot go back.

You didn't want me, but you wanted to change the weather.
You only found yourself in need when we were together.
All along, you should have known better.

The moon is much too bright
For me to fall asleep tonight.
I know that you are watching, too.

Your clothes must smell like smoke,
And had you thought before you spoke,
I would have been spared a break or two.

You didn't want me, but you wanted to go together.
Oh, what a pair we make, birds of a feather.
All along, you should have known better.

You didn't want me, but you wanted to change the weather.
You only found yourself in need when we were together.
All along, you should have known better.
