[Lyric] Birds On A Wire (The Hawk In Paris)

[Verse 1]
We took aim at the wires where the lovebirds wait
For the sky and the wind to decide their fate
With a steady grip we stretched our bows
Where each one fell, there grew a rose

We ran through the fields and we bled by the thorns
Stained red windows where our skin was torn
To put an end to the pain we climbed inside
And we raced on our breath to our hearts till we cried

The heat from our tears singed the fields like fire
So we flew, two lovebirds landing on a wire

[Chorus]
Isn't it enough to make you stay, giving you a million reasons
You're still leaving, oh
Isn't it enough to make you stay, giving you a million reasons
You're still leaving, oh

[Verse 2]
We love eruptions, splinters and beads
But they don't fit here anymore
I'd give my place up at the feast
To just not feel so much hunger
You're still leaving
You're still leaving

[Chorus]
Isn't it enough to make you stay, giving you a million reasons
You're still leaving, oh
Isn't it enough to make you stay, giving you a million reasons
You're still leaving, oh

[Outro]
Of all the ways to say goodbye, why do you make it look so easy?
Why do you have to leave me?
All the ways to say goodbye, why do we make it look so easy?
Why do you have to leave me?
Why do you have to leave me?
Baby, don't leave me
