Natalie Merchant - Ladybird

Hey, Ladybird, ain’t it just the way
the way that love grows cold and then fades away
Now when he touches you, make no mistake
the fire’s long gone out and the ash has blown away
You don’t know how to leave and you don’t know where to fly
You don’t know what you feelbut you know it’s not satisfied today
So many little ones, so many mouths
you’ve got a lot to feed and you know you don’t know how
Making the best of it, somehow you’re making do
making the best of the days that you stay
and you wait in this cage they made for you
You don’t know how to leaveand you don’t know where to fly
You’ve got a lot of things to lose
so you’ve got a lot of things to hide
You know you don’t believebut you know you’ve got to try today
You know the sweetest wine, it’s a witches’ brew
pours like honey down and then burns a hole in you
Yeah, you may think you’re done but you’re never throughspitting out
the bitterness to get the little sweetness you do
You don’t know how to leaveand you don’t know where to fly
You’ve got a lot of things to lose
so you’ve got a lot of things to hide
You don’t know what you feelbut you know it’s not satisfied
You know you don’t believebut you know you’ve got to try today
Feel the winter bitterness it’s heavy on the wind,coming back again
Maybe it’s time to fly, time to fly away
When you gonna spread your wings and fly
When you gonna fly away
When you gonna fly away
