There's A Bluebird In My Heart - Over the Rhine

There’s a bluebird in my heart

One that’s drowning in its own wistful tune

For fear of pending tomorrow and lofty full moons

(And) never knowing where to start

There’s a bluebird with a song

With little effort how she sings it so well

Like a lover with a broken-throated story to tell

I’ve kept her secret for so long

Why do you always make me drink alone?

When it comes to losing you I’m always on my own

Why do you always make me

There’s a bluebird in my heart

Drowning in bourbon and brushstrokes all night

When all the ordinary sinners take flight

No one will ever see your wings
