Ted Leo and The Pharmacists
The Mighty Sparrow
When the café doors exploded, I reacted too
Reacted to you, reacted to you
Cast into that sunny morning, I was coming too
But now I'm coming to, I'm coming to
Papers in the wind a-waltzing, I was dancing too
My mind danced too, my mind danced too
Lifted up on wings of strangers, saw a face and knew
Then I saw you, red, white, and bruised
Silent for a moment, then singing, I thought I could hear
Singing turned to sirens as ringing returned to my ears
And the sirens called me back to their miserable rock
While you're following the sparrow, I can only follow the clock
Silent for a moment, then singing, I thought I could hear
Singing turned to sirens as ringing returned to my ears
And the sirens called me back to their miserable rock
While you're following the sparrow, I can only follow the clock
When the café doors exploded, I reacted too
Reacted to you, reacted to you
