barry adamson - the hummingbird lyrics

[verse 1]
the hummingbird feeds at the four o’clock flower
got a gun in my hand so i k!ll every hour
done with the dirt and all the days in the shower
just to get the stink off of me

[chorus]
it was furious, it was sweet
scrubbed away ’til underneath
i could feel the white hot heat
white hot heat on a hot white sheet
like a shock, i smelled the blood
then i could not get enough
all the frenzy out of love
would not suffer from the bottom, the landscapes came alive
[verse 2]
the humming bird whirs as i feast on the pink
you can lead a horse to water, you can make him take a drink
you think that you all know me, but it ain’t quite what you think
here on ballards plantation

[chorus]
but with a language outta reach
with her faith, i did beseech
’til my soul was all a_bleach
dry my eyes now as i stare into the sun
and the world begins to fade
with the choices we have made
so commence a new charade
bright and shiny as a mirror, and the lanscapes came alive

[verse 3]
the hummingbird feeds at the four o’clock flower
got a gun in my hand so i k!ll every hour
done with the dirt and all the days in the shower
never get the stink off of me

[chorus]
yeah, we whisper of the grass
and the perfect way to pass
and it’s love for everlast
haul me over as i glide into the light
’cause this final life of thrift
see my mood begin to lift
with a momentary shift
no surprises on the radio, and the landscapes came alive

- barry adamson
