Lyrics
There's a blue bird at my window
I can't hear the songs he sings
All the jewels in Heaven
They don't look the same to me
I just wade the tides that turned
'Til I learn to leave the past behind
It's only lies, that I'm living
It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing
Guess I'm doing fine
All the battlements are empty
And the moon is lying low
Yellow roses in the graveyard
Got no time to watch them grow
Now I bade a friend farewell
I can do whatever pleases me
It's only lies, that I'm living
It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing
Guess I'm doing fine
Press my face up to the window
To see how warm it is inside
See the things that I've been missin'
Missin' all this time
It's only lies, that I'm living
It's only tears that I'm crying
It's only you that I'm losing
Guess I'm doing fine
Guess I'm doing fine
