Handsome Family, The - Little Sparrows Lyrics






All you little sparrows on a swaying branch
Singing to the cars up on the overpass
When you fly away from here
Take me with you when you go

A herd of antelope
A sea of redwood trees
Schools of shining fish
And a thousand buzzing bees

Overwinter parking lots, the passing geese
Rising in the air, little dandelion seeds
When you fly away from here
Please don't leave me when you go

If I were Jonah
Tossed into the raging sea
I would not fear the whale
Who came to swallow me

All you paper cups rolling down the windy street
All you little ants winding through the tangled weeds
Where you're going I don't care
Take me with you when you go
