A hurricane of sparrows

about

Went through about six verses before these ones. Was Marty's favourite song I think. My attempt at grafting drunk doo-wop vocals on a Tom Petty song but more psychedelic....I guess...

lyrics

you won't believe the things I've seen
I've seen ghosts watching babies sleep
I heard a hymn sung by a flock of birds
and I believed every single word
you won't believe everything I've seen
I saw the sea stop and part in front of me
I've seen enough now, I'm coming home to you
I'll tell you all about it

she said miracles will catch you out
I said all I want's to let you down
its not what you think it really is
it's something

'cos I've seen things
god I wish you'd seen them too
was a vision of a heaven
was a vision of a heaven with you

you won't believe the things I've seen
I've seen angels watching over me
a hurricane of sparrows overhead
I know you won't believe me

she said miracles will catch you out
I said all I want's to let you down
its not what you think it really is
it's something

'cos I've seen things
god I wish you'd seen them too
was a vision of a heaven
was a vision of a heaven with you
