lyrics

Ask The Birds – Emily Triggs

Won’t you say the words that I never heard
that I never heard from you
Won’t you speak to me in that soft southern way
and tell me how you feel
When the wind blows steady to the north
and I don’t hear your call
I will ask the birds if you might have forgotten
If they know where you are

Won’t you take my hand like you’ve done before
like a soldier brave and tall
Won’t you reach for me in that strong southern way
and show me how you feel
When the wind stops blowing to the north
and I never hear your voice
I will ask the birds if you might have forgotten
To tell me if you’re still with her

The hardest road that I’ve ever toiled
is empty as it is long
I have no clue as to where it leads
or what I’ll lose when I am gone
So I’ll stare out as it stretches on
and I’ll hold, I’ll hold a hope in hell
I will ask the birds if you might have forgotten
and to show you where I am
I will ask the birds
if you might have forgotten
If you might have forgotten
If you might have forgotten
