The King Of All Birds Lyrics - In The Magic Hour - Aoife O'donovan

Look out, look out 

Here I come now 

Fists out 

I'm a fighter bird 

I'm a harrier hawk 

A wild flock 

I keep time by the city clock 

When the moon is steady 

I'll find you 

I'm not lucky 

And I'm not scared 

There could be a goldmine anywhere 

Anyone that I might want in this world 

They're asleep in the arms of another girl 

Who will they be when the lights come up? 

Everyone that I ever loved in my life 

Now calls somebody else their wife 

Who am I to you? 

Get up, get up 

Get it together and climb on up 

To the top of the tree 

I'm an owl now, a lonely owl 

Who, who, where, what, why, when 

How the hell'd I get this far without you? 

Pull my feathers on by one 

Put'em in your pocket when I'm gone 

Anyone that I might want in this world 

They're asleep in the arms of another girl 

Who will they be when the lights come up? 

Everyone that I ever loved in my life 

Now calls somebody else their wife 

Who am I to you? 

Who am I to you? 

Am I just anyone? 

Am I the only one? 

Who am I to you? 

Am I just anyone? 

Am I the only one? 

Come on, come on 

Put me back together, let me soldier on 

I'm the king of it all 

I'm a little wren 

I'm happiest when I hitch a ride on the wing of a friend 

Looking down on everything then 

When the road gets weary love 

Remember who I'm dreaming of
