Rose Cousins - Birds of Belfast lyrics

Artist: Rose Cousins

album: Birds of Belfast


The field grew wild all that buzzing summer
We dozed a while and woke a little younger
You hung your clothes and waited on the weather
Thorn and rose twine and grow together
When did all the birds of Belfast learn to sing your name?
How did all those silver ashes breathe into flame?
Who are you without your sadness? Who am I without my shame?
When did all the birds of Belfast learn to sing your name?
Which was right, the fight or the surrender?
You my light, my solitary mender
Still the sun will rise on every weeper's mourning
Tear stained eyes, pearly light adorning
When did all the birds of Belfast learn to sing your name?
How did all those silver ashes breathe into flame?
Who are you without your sadness? Who am I without my shame?
When did all the birds of Belfast learn?
Who am I to sing a love song? Who are you to do the same?
With our weary little hearts full of broken little claims?
Will they even recognize us? Should I give you a new name?
And then all the birds of Belfast would sing it
