Songwriter: Jeff Tweedy 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 Publisher: BUG MUSIC 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
