Two days ago I found his number written on a card and I started to remember my life on sparrows yard under a flag of freedom of love and anarchy but all these god old memories won't bring the past to me he played in a band he never got out of breath he missed no crazy things his life was like his death we could not believe why didn't he come back a preacher spoke of love and hope we all were dressed in black Refrain: Was it the day the sparrows flew away was it the day we flew away was it the day the sparrows flew away was it the day we had to pay A girl was going out with one of our floor until she felt in love with Rob who smoked next door times were getting harder I stood between the lines the wheel of time was turning we didn't recognize from this day on our common room got quite no more peace of laughter were roaring through the night a tear could have been love a smile could have been hate we were sitting on our rooms to wait on our fate Refrain The millers were here had a few crates of beer none of blythe power used our shower a citizen fish smoked a few spliffes then the letter was short by the land lord no...
