Album: Cambridge Folk Festival: A Celebration of Roots Music 1997-1999

Hummingbird, hummingbird
I knew I'd find you here
Bright lights draw you near, they always will
All that work and worry just to stay still
Hummingbird, hummingbird
Always on your mind
Sweetness you must find, does it get you down ?
You never reach the sky and you cannot touch the ground

Soar you will never soar
Spin or swoop or glide
Soar up above us all
In the shadows you must hide
Soar you will never soar
Spin or swoop or glide
Soar up above us all
In the shadows you must hide

Hummingbird, hummingbird
So you spread your wings
If you forget to sing you'll lose your song
Then where will you go when all the pretty things have gone ?

Hummingbird, hummingbird
