Cowbirds Lyrics by Sarah Harmer

Are You Gone

0

He didn't want you to see him there
Standing in the middle of the road
Flags were up on mailboxes
But he didn’t know where to go
She didn't want you to see her like that
Anything at all she could explain
Some would say she was a con all the way
And you were her latest campaign
Who knew
How low they flew
Cowbirds in the neighbourhood
Start with a loan
They'll take your home eventually
He knows he shouldn’t but he kinda misses them
I almost said "You heard of Stockholm Syndrome?"
But it's a bit too soon for that
He didn't want to get pushed around
But he couldn't seem to find the words to say it
Thought he was doing a favour when the chips were down
And they would be good to repay it
We didn't want to get too involved
Booze was in the air when he'd come over
He would knock on the door with some nothing to ask
He was just needing a shoulder
Who knew
How low they flew
Cowbirds in the neighbourhood
Start with a loan
They'll take your home eventually
He knows he shouldn't but he kinda misses them
I almost said "You heard of Stockholm Syndrome?"
But it’s a bit too soon for that
Now they’re in another city
And they're down another road
You think this place looks sleepy
But it’s wilder than you know
They'll be out looking for a new home
You should know
They'll be out looking for a new home
You should know
Now you know
Now you know
Now you know
