Kris Delmhorst - Hummingbird Lyrics
Here in the dark, I won't even make a spark.You're the only one who's never seenThe way I can light up in shades of gold and green.I'm just a little firefly, I want to shine for you but I'm too shy,So when you come around I hide my light.But when you go away I shine for you all night.Out there in the sun, I'd open up for anyone.You're the only one who closes meBecause I want to be the brightest thing you've ever seen.I'm just a little dandelion, I want to blossom but I'm scared of trying,So I hide my head when you come into the room.But when you go away I come right into bloom.And I can't look down, I'm way too high,And I can't look up, into your eyes.Well I never was afraid to sing out loud, in front of anybody, any crowd.You, you make me lose my nerveFeel like something more than I could ever deserve.I'm just a little hummingbird, I want to sing but I can't find the words,So when you come around I just go stillBut after you move on, when I know you're gone,Then I sing for you the way I always will.
