lyrics

it's not quite snowing yet
the city fills with chilled air, streets hold their breath
and a man drives home
holding tight to faded lines
remembering his childhood house and the tree they used to climb

hold your hopes in
teach them to fly then
make a promise to yourself
that even though you've held them close
when the birds fly home, you'll let them go

it's not quite decided
yet still we watch thin figures in the air evaporating
it's not quiet in the street
where the kids play, watching out for cars
until the only lights to see by are the pale moon and the washed-out stars

hold your hopes in
teach them to fly then
make a promise to yourself
that even though you've held them close
when the birds fly home, you'll let them go
