A Bird Could Love a Fish Lyrics by Lissie

Catching a Tiger (Anniversary Edition)

2021

[Verse 1]
Frozen like December
Underwater, I remember
The words that you wrote me
In a bottle that you emptied
With my breath held, tried to try it
But so deep down it's too quiet
And my wings were wet and sticky
My lungs empty much too quickly
[Chorus]
When you and me
Are hardly breathing
Go back, go back to the water
Go back to the sea
I go back to the sky
[Verse 2]
Treetops, sun is shining
And my nest is so inviting
And my perch calls me back there
But your school swims gotta get gone
All your cool friends think it's all wrong
I could catch you, couldn't keep you
We inhabit our own bluеs
[Chorus]
When you and me
Are hardly brеathing
Go back, go back to the water
Go back to the sea
I go back to the sky
And fly fly fly
[Bridge]
All I ever wanted was to find a home
That Fishy, you and I
We could call our own
But in this here lifetime
Well it will never be, no
It's not in our destiny
[Verse 3]
Frozen like december
Underwater, I remember
The way that I loved you
And I know that you loved me too
[Chorus]
When you and me
Are hardly breathing
Go back, go back to the water
Go back, go back to the water
Go back to the sea
I go back to the sky
[Outro]
A bird could love a fish
But where would they live?
