Songbird Lyrics - Never Been Gone - Carly Simon

Most everyone I know leaves New York on holidays 

The Fourth of July 

Is a little lonely here 

And a little holy 

Fireworks out on the river 

And the boys all drinking beer 

Sing hallelujah for the year 

Hallelujah for the year 

Hallelujah for the year 

There's a songbird in my tree 

I don't know where it leads 

But I believe it sings it's song for me 

And never sees the things I see 

Oh and I can dream 

For the rest of my life 

For the rest of my life 

Hideaway 

The freezing days 

And when the sun returns 

I will have learned to sing 

Your haunting melody 

You'll take the notes and harmonize me 

And bring me back to hallelujah 

For the rest of my life 

Hallelujah
