Maybe Sparrow lyrics
by Neko Case





Maybe sparrow you should wait

The hawks alight till morning

You'll never pass beyond the gate

If you don't hear my warning



Notes are hung so effortless

With the rise and fall of sparrow's breast

It's a drowning dive and back to the chorus



La di da di da di da

La di da di da di da



Oh my sparrow it's too late

Your body limp beneath my feet

Your dusty eyes cold as clay

You didn't hear my warning



Maybe sparrow it's too late

Moonlight glanced off metal wings

In a thunderstorm above the clouds

The engine hums a sparrow's phrase

For those who cannot hear the words

For those who will not hear the words

For those who will not hear the words



La di da di da di da

La di da di da di da



Maybe sparrow

Maybe sparrow

Maybe sparrow
