Rainbirds Not Exactly Lyrics

Not Exactly Lyrics

I am sad alright
But what a waste of time
I held you much too close
And now there`s something missing
But I can`t see the empty space
Something else has taken place
I am sad alright
But what a waste of tears
I held you much too close
And now there`s someone missing
She is gone without a trace
Just the expression on her face:
What a waste
There`s a flame and a fire and a body burning up
And a bird on a shape made of steel ohoh
He keeps on singing

It`s not exactly what you think
Not exactly what you see
Not exactly what you`ve learned
And what you will be learning

I am sad alright
But what a waste of breath
I`m only talking to relieve
Although there`s noone listening
He is gone without a trace
Just the expression on his face:
Who`s to blame? 
There`s a flame and a fire and a body burning up
And a bird on a shape made of steel, ohoh
He keeps on singing

It`s not exactly what you think
Not exactly what you see
Not exactly what you`ve learned
And what you will be learning
