Lyrics:
[Verse 1: Aoife O'Donovan] You're a strange bird You're a black crow And you're darker than the darkest dark before the cock crows You're a strange bird Wanna take a long flight Over highway 101 down to Crescent City tide Then you sit on the white beach While the waves wash up your supper Sit on the white beach wondering Where are the others [Verse 2: O'Donovan/O'Donovan & Sara Watkins/Watkins & Sarah Jarosz] The other road, the One less taken You tried it out you stuck around just trying to fake it There were good days 'Til you broke them There were right words but they always were the ones unspoken So you sit beneath a tree And wait for manna from the sky Sit beneath a tree humming Am I born to die [Chorus: O'Donovan/O'Donovan & Jarosz/O'Donovan, Watkins & Jarosz] Dirt under your fingernails Wipe the mud from the windowsill In this world of sweat and tears Make a life worth of living [Verse 3: O'Donovan/O'Donovan & Watkins] It's a free fall It's a high dive No one really knows what the ocean hides But you and I, bird We're gonna find out And I'll be next to you when the lights go out And we might see some kind Of beauty in the water Flashes all around Of a life that we forgot [Chorus: O'Donovan/O'Donovan & Jarosz/O'Donovan, Watkins & Jarosz] Dirt under your fingernails Wipe the mud from the window sill In this world of sweat and tears Make a life worth of living [Outro: O'Donovan/Watkins/Jarosz] Make a life worth of living (Make a life worth of living) (Make a life worth of living) Make a life worth of living You're a strange bird You're a black crow
