The Cat Empire - Sparrow

{Intro: Felix}
We went long into the night
Our fire was strong, our eyes were bright

And though I failed my desire
I tried, my love, my love, I tried

I know these chords I played before
I played one-thousand times, oh no

And if I fail to write them new
Just know, my love, I tried for you

{Verse: Felix}
In the light you'll disappear
Into the world outside
In the night you shine so clear
And burn so bright

You're my sparrow in the night
And all I rea-ea-eally mean is

{Chorus 1: Felix, All}
I wanna live
Yea-ea-ea-ea-eah
Yeah I just wanna fly
Ah-ah-ah-ah-I

I'm barely sane, no I'm not dead
I wanna be with you again
A sparrow in the night

I wanna li-i-i-ive
I just wanna fly
Ah-ah-ah-ah-I

I wanna face the sky, say "I'm not dead"
I wanna be with you again
My sparrow in the night

{Chorus 2: Felix}
I can't find it in no fate
I can't find it down no stairs
I can't find it on no road
Or when I'm out there gambling

I can't find it on no screen
It's not showing anywhere
I can't find it without you
Without you here

{Post-Chorus: All}
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay

La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay

{Bridge: Felix}
Maybe I'll find you in the wild far from here
Like a memory far gone
That always near
You keep this animal alive
And all I really mean is

{Chorus 1: Felix, All}
I wanna live
I just wanna fly
Ah-ah-ah-ah-I

I'm barely sane, no I'm not dead
I wanna be with you again
My sparrow in the night

I wanna li-i-i-ive
I just wanna fly
Ah-ah-ah-ah-I

I wanna face the sky, say "I'm not dead"
I wanna be with you again
My sparrow in the ni-igh-ight

{Chorus 2: Felix}
I can't find it in no fate
I can't find it down no stairs
I can't find it on no road
Or when I'm out there gambling

I can't find it on no screen
It's not showing anywhere
I can't find it without you
Without you here with me

{Bridge: Felix}
When the numbers all add up
I'm so bored oh-can't you see?
With them one and one makes two
With you one and one is three

I need a life a little spark
I need to let it all hang free
But I can't do it without you
Without you here

{Post-Chorus: All}
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay

La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay

La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay

La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay-ee-lay
La-la-la-la-la-lay
