Branches – Sparrow lyrics

[Instrumental Intro]

[Verse 1]
I feel like an echo waiting for a voice of its own
I am waiting in the darkness for a word
To take me home
I feel like a broken shadow that is long since overgrown
A skeleton that's kept my memories
Written in it's bones

[Chorus]
But if Your eye is on the sparrow
If You're worried about the dove
Have You heard all of my shouting?
Will You come down from above?
If Your eye is on the sparrow
If You're worried about the bird
Did You get all of my letters?
Did You read my troubled words?

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
I feel like a dried up fountain waiting for rain to fall
To fill the cracks and holes and see if there is
Hope for me at all
I feel like an empty inkwell with nothing left to say
'Cause all the letters that I wrote to You have
All been thrown away

[Chorus]
But if Your eye is on the sparrow
If You're worried about the dove
Have You heard all of my shouting?
Will You come down from above?
If Your eye is on the sparrow
If You're worried about the bird
Did You get all of my letters?
Did You read my troubled words?

[Chorus 2]
But If Your eye is on the sparrow
If You're worried about its wings
Then I'm a fool to think
That You'd ignore the worries that I sing
Rather if I hear an echo
And if the shadow's there
Then You must be on the other end
To make these things appear

[Interlude]
Oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh, ooh
Oh, oh, ooh

[Ending]
I sing because I'm happy, I sing because I'm free
His eye's on the sparrow and he watches over me
Oh, I sing because I'm happy, I sing because I'm free
His eye's on the sparrow and he watches over me
