Did you think I was lonely, when you saw me that day?
Well I was only waiting, cuz I wanted you to stay
And did you see all those Sparrows, flying away that day?
Well I've could kept them locked up, could have looked at them that way

Hold on to your hat son, you're gonna miss the ride before you're done
And you can't rebuild the road you're driving down
So forget the green eyed girl you loved
When regret is all you're thinking of, thinking of

Did you think I was lonely, when you saw me that day?
Well I was only waiting, cuz I wanted you to stay
And did you see all those Sparrows, flying away that day?
Well I've could kept them locked up, could have looked at them that way

Your system's overload now
You can't find the who what where or how
And it's hard to know she's found another life
And leaves fall, the season learn to change
But he'll learn to give the world his blame , all his blame

Did you think I was lonely, when you saw me that day?
Well I was only waiting, cuz I wanted you to stay
And did you see all those Sparrows, flying away that day?
Well I've could kept them locked up, could have looked at them that way

Feet on the ground, find your room again
Watched the colors blend, it's the last surrender
Could you leave it all behind?
