I'm A Hummingbird - Eels (滑头乐团)[00:00:00]
The old oak tree had roots[00:00:13]
So far down in the ground[00:00:15]
I fell from it and hit the dirt without a sound[00:00:19]
I dreamt at night of growing wings so I could fly[00:00:25]
A caterpillar to a moth before I die[00:00:31]
I plodded through ordinarily earthbound[00:00:37]
I knew my feet could never leave the ground[00:00:42]
I went about my way unsteady and afraid[00:00:48]
How could I know I was headed for this day [00:00:54]
All the seconds[00:00:59]
And the minutes[00:01:01]
And the hours[00:01:02]
And the days[00:01:04]
And the weeks[00:01:05]
And the months[00:01:07]
And the years of my life[00:01:09]
It was all worth it[00:01:14]
To be here now[00:01:18]
I'm a hummingbird[00:01:22]
Floatin' tree to tree[00:01:24]
I'm a hummingbird[00:01:28]
Beautiful and free[00:01:31]
The old oak tree was dead[00:01:35]
I had to cut it down[00:01:37]
The sapling roots were new[00:01:42]
And sprouting through the ground[00:01:44]
New worlds were taking shape [00:01:48]
Unseen and unknown[00:01:50]
A branch to rest upon[00:01:53]
A place to call my own[00:01:56]
Something had changed [00:01:59]
And I'm not sure how or why[00:02:01]
I wasn't dreaming[00:02:05]
I was awake I was alive[00:02:07]
Gave up the ghost[00:02:11]
He had nothing left to say[00:02:13]
But it was him who brought me to this day[00:02:17]
All the seconds[00:02:22]
And the minutes[00:02:23]
And the hours[00:02:25]
And the days[00:02:27]
And the weeks[00:02:28]
And the months[00:02:30]
And the years of my life[00:02:32]
It was all worth it[00:02:37]
To be here now[00:02:40]
I'm a hummingbird[00:02:45]
Floatin' tree to tree[00:02:47]
I'm a hummingbird[00:02:51]
Beautiful and free[00:02:54]
