Hummingbird
Lyrics
His goal in life was to be an echo
Riding alone, town after town, toll after toll
A fixed bayonet through the great Southwest to forget her

She appears in his dreams

In a sleeping bag underneath the stars
Remember to remember me
A hummingbird
But in his car and in his arms
Standing still in your past
Remember to remember me
Floating fast like a hummingbird
And the gray fountain spray of the great milky way
The type of sound that floats around
But in the deep chrome canyons

Floating fast like a hummingbird
A dream can mean anything
She appears in his dreams
No one could hear him or anything
A hummingbird
Can upset her but he never could
Floating fast like a hummingbird
Of the loudest Manhattans
His goal in life was to be an echo
So he slept on a mountain
A fixed bayonet through the great Southwest to forget her
His goal in life was to be an echo
A cheap sunset on a television set
Would never let him die alone
Standing still in your past
Remember to remember me
He would lie awake and count them
And then back down like a feather
Riding alone, town after town, toll after toll
Standing still in your past
