Sparrow - Ashley McBryde

Telephones and post cards

I called you from the lobby bar on Tuesday

How’s the okra coming up?

And boy, I wish I had me some

Save me a plate

Yeah, I’ve been sleeping alright

I get a couple days in July

Kiss Dad for me, I love you both, goodnight

Sparrow

Oh, it wouldn’t trade nothing for the way it feels to fly

It ain’t fair though

How you miss the ground when you’re out here in the sky

Higher than you’ve ever been

Lonely like you never been

Waiting on the wind to take you home

Hard rain over Fayetteville

Jack and Coke, a sleeping pill

Living the dream

Thirty thousand feet down there

You’re waking daddy up in his chair

And cutting the lights and locking the door and saying a prayer

For a sparrow

Who wouldn’t trade nothing for the way it feels to fly

It ain’t fair though

How you miss the ground when you’re out here in the sky

You’re higher than you’ve ever been

Lonely like you never been

Waiting on the wind to take you home

Higher than you’ve ever been

Lonely like you never been

Waiting on the wind to take you home
