Hummingbird - Stevens

There?s a yellow flower by your bed
Sadly droopin? it?s perfumed head
So you won?t smell it, I know what you?ll miss

And there?s a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
A hummingbird, a hummingbird,
Oh there?s a hummingbird singing.

There is the hat you made, the clothes you wore
Lying down on the cold, dirty floor.
The colors are fading, they?ll never shine again.

And there?s a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
A hummingbird, a hummingbird,
Oh there?s a hummingbird singing.

Now the road is turning gray,
There?s a shadow where you once lay.
They?ll find it tomorrow, and think you went alone.

But there?s a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
A hummingbird, a hummingbird,
Ah there?s a hummingbird crying.
