James Hunter - The Lament of a Mockingbird Lyrics




Look at him
Look at the man with the wavy hair and that grin
The way he sits on the bench and begins to sing
He doesn't care if no one listens
Look at them
They're hand in hand, and there walking along the street
Falling in love, in the park where they always meet
The feeling is bittersweet

Just when the man hears someone sing along
He opens his eyes, and they're suddenly gone
He asks himself, God have I done something wrong?
God said Son, don't stop singing
It won't be too long
So the man keeps

Writing songs that won't be heard
Waiting out for those three words
Please don't kill this mockingbird
He just wants to see the world
Loves pure vapour doesn't last
Comes so quickly, goes so fast
He'll keep singing this old song
Till his time has come and gone
But maybe he'll find the pearl
The woman to change his world
Or maybe God put him here to sing alone?

Look at me
I'm not the best, but I'll be the best I can be
If you want, come and sit on the bench with me
I'll play guitar and you can sing
Don't worry
You say it's wrong and it is not meant to be
That's okay
I do not mind waiting
I know someone is waiting for me
So I'll keep

Writing songs that won't be heard
Waiting out for those three words
Please don't kill this mockingbird
I just want to see the world
Loves pure vapour doesn't last
Comes so quickly, goes so fast
I'll keep singing this old song
Till my time has come and gone
(Writing Songs)
Writing songs that won't be heard
Waiting out for those three words
Please don't kill this mockingbird, I just want to see the world
(See the world)
Loves pure vapour doesn't last, comes so quickly, goes so fast
I'll keep singing this old song, till my time has come and gone
But I know I'll find the pearl
The woman to change my world
God did not put me here, to sing alone
