I’m in the house out in the backyard
I lit the smoke before the song
I’m not so worried about the after
I’ve been outside myself for way too long
I told my lady I be moving
I got a different frame of mind
What does it take to get it blooming
I put a prayer upon the great blue sky

All of my lessons they come in the form of a sound
I am a bird that is waiting for them to come down

I watch it move upon the water
The song it brings me into now
Some things I thought I would remember
It’s like my older ways have all burned down
This is the journey I’ve been taking
Of how I enter different rooms
Whatever way you want to get there
I hope you find the time to get there soon

All of my lessons they come in the form of a sound
I am a bird that is waiting for them to come down
All of my lessons they come in the form of a sound
I am a bird that is waiting for them to come down
