Baby say it isn't true You were never there It wasn't you It's more than I can do To try and keep it shiny new The gap just opens up Between the words we like to use And the thing that's seen Seen through your eyes now darling In blue distances calling Like the birds of the high arctic And you don't have to make the move No there ain't nothing left to prove Accept the plain unvarnished truth It's a part of you you can't remove Like a love that's been There ain't no answers darling Just blue distances calling Like the birds of the high arctic They're calling Like the birds of the high arctic This darling For the light in your eyes sparked it Two sheets to the wind Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Yeah yeah, yeah yeah Like the birds of the high arctic Like the birds of the high arctic Like the birds of the high arctic Like the birds of the high arctic Baby say that it isn't true You were never there and it wasn't you Never there wasn't you Baby say that it isn't true You were never there Never there wasn't you Like the birds of the high arctic Like the birds of the high arctic Like the birds of the high arctic
