I push a kneedle and I pull the thread
Trying to put myself back together again.
She feels alive when they call her name,
One look in her eyes you know I feel the same.
Yeah.

And I, well, I believe that eventually we'll get what we're after
But I need it now.
And all I see out my window is a hummingbird flying backwards,
And it's all I think about.

She moves a queen and I realize
Checkmates are coming and it's right on time.
She told me how to color inside the lines;
But my flipbook only shows how the flower dies.

And I, well, I believe that eventually we'll get what we're after;
But I need it now.
And all I see out my window is a hummingbird flying backwards,
And that's good enough for now.

And I believe that eventually we'll get what we're after,
And I need it now. oh I need it now.
And all I see out my window is a hummingbird flying backwards.

And I believe that our love
Will find its way throught he current
As the waves crash down.
So cast your sails and follow me out towards the horizon.

As the sea fades out.
