Lyrics
Where'd the October birds go? I used to watch them from the window When I had eyes to see When I was more like me Where did your rosy face go? When did your cheeks get so hollow? Just a reflection of me Did I hurt you so badly? I wanna be good but the moment I see That runaway bride on that train heading east I want to be like her, I want to be free She lifts her dress and runs into the street But I've never seen a staircase without dreaming of falling I'm a flinch in your cheek, I'm the shake in your hand And I've laid here before and I'll lay here again And I haven't seen war, but I've tasted the sand I've died five hundred times with your flag in my hand And I've never seen a river without dreaming of jumping Call me lucky and spoiled, I'm selfish and awful I wake and I want more, I go to sleep needing you Over and over, I take what you give me No man is an island, I'm the girl on your shoreline Washed up and heaving, pathetically breathing I cling to your sleeves, and I stop you from leaving October birds singing and wedding bells ringing Tied to the alter, I'll keep you forever Don't let me down easy, you're in me to deeply
