Birds

See the seagulls sitting by the waterfront, Like sculptures made of stone, Watching summer good times fly away And leave the seagulls all alone. Birds are like words: Suddenly away. Birds are like words: Some of them will stay. See the empty seat beneath me Thinking of the days I spent with you. Memories of what we said are circling in my mind And make me blue. Words are like birds: Suddenly away. Words are like birds: Some of them will stay.
