Songbird

I can be a little too straight-laced
Want everything to have it's place
Mmm
I like to know what to expect
Get all my little boxes checked
Mmm

Oh, but there you go again
Crashing through my best laid plans
Sometimes a bit of crazy
Is exactly what I need

You are the songbird
Singing in a coal mine
You're the neon rainbow
In a sky of grey
And when the storm thunders
And the clouds open up wide
Honey, you're the madman
Dancing in the rain

Waking up to more bad news
Reminding me what I could lose
Mmm
The headlines have me turned around
But nothing seem to weigh you down
Mmm

It's not that you ignore the bad
It's not that nothing makes you sad
It's just that you hear music
Everywhere you go

You are the songbird
Singing in a coal mine
You're the neon rainbow
In a sky of grey
And when the storm thunders
And the clouds open up wide
Honey, you're the madman
Dancing in the rain

Some might call it foolish
Others call it faith
Truth is I wish I could live a little more that way

Like a songbird
Singing in a coal mine
You're the neon rainbow
In a sky of grey
And when the storm thunders
And the clouds open up wide
Honey, you're the madman
Dancing in the rain

You are the songbird
Singing in a coal mine
You're the neon rainbow
In a sky of grey
And when the storm thunders
And the clouds open up wide
Honey, you're the madman
Dancing in the rain
Oh, honey, you're the madman
Dancing in the rain
