paula cole - chickadees (and sipping tea) lyrics

Loading...

this isn’t what i foresaw
for you and me
but here we are
post [missing] tea

the chickadees have come again
to partake in their daily bread
i look to you and watch your hands
fumbling with your golden band
fumbling with your pipe
and all your notions of a twenty-year-old man

how did we get so gray
somewhere along the way?
you lay your burdens down
the happy beyond the dreams

the things i wanted for myself
fit me like some hand-me-down
they weren’t as important as the years
of softness with my little girl
and finding meaning in a world
where you are, where we are, where we love

fumbling with my hair
i’ll place your finger in my mouth and hold you there
i hold you there
i hold you there

another year, another snow
you place the morning feeders out
i see surrender in your gate
of things forgotten by middle age

the sailing seas, the foreign lands
of anch0r-d in the every man
a miracle, a little bird
has come aloft onto our world
fumbling with my heart again
chickadees and sipping tea

chickadees and sipping tea
