Cowboy Junkies - No Birds Today Lyrics






No birds today
Just this square patch of gray
Molting sky moving in on its morning prey

No words today
No one knocking at the gate
I lost my name long before I lost my way

I wonder what he thinks out there
Pastures turn from black to green and black again
The sun it carves a well worn path
from here to there and the next day back

No birds today
Just this dull sky of gray
Winter's quickly moving in on its skulking prey

No dust today
No clouds rising from my driveway
No hope drifting slowly my way

I wonder what he thinks in there
Pastures turn from black to green and black again
The sun it carves a well worn path
from here to there and the next day back

Cold bars of steel
I'm beginning to dig the feel
of all that disappears into....ethereal

Cold words of hate
Now I'm seeing how things break
Much too late now to cure my mistakes

I wonder what he thinks in there
Pastures turn from black to green and black again
The sun it carves a well worn path
from here to there and the next day back

No birds today
Just this barren stretch of gray
Just this barren stretch of gray

    omg...the first time I ever went to GF mtn I think I was eight. Back then they still allowed people to have black bears in cages (there were quite a few as road side attractions). Anyways they had a bear on the other side of the swinging bridge and I wanted to see it soooo bad but I was SOOOOO afraid of the bridge. I had to cross that sucker on my hands and knees to get across. The bridge is much better today than it was 35 years ago =/ lol
