Another hummingbird departs
Another lingers in the yard
Envy how they dive so effortlessly
Envy how they revel in their weightlessness
I’ve recognized the beauty in fragility, it’s true
But I feel like a stranger to it now suddenly
I don’t wanna leave this garden alone
While they come and go I hover
Still enough to paint me with them
And if I can be more plainspoken
Your voice is with me, I'm reminded
I sing in part because you often
Told me that you liked to listen
Another bowl of nectar laid
Another glass of lemonade
I watch them both evaporate into the summer heat
I don’t wanna leave this garden alone
While they come and go I hover
I don’t wanna reach an end to the call
So I’ll leave the phone on the table
Stand there as the dial tone runs
And if I can be more plainspoken
Your voice is with me, I'm reminded
I sing in part because you often
Told me that you liked to listen
And I believe you
And I’ll believe in you
And I believe you
And I’ll believe in you
And if I can be more plainspoken
Your voice is with me, I'm reminded
I sing in part because you often
Told me that you liked to listen
