They tell us autumn's a-comin'
And soon everything around us will die
Only a fool believes that he is
Different from the birds in the sky
All those birds go chasin'
Some better, sunny days
You can't hear them singing
'Cause they've all gone away
But this one bird didn't leave you
It stayed through the wintertime
You can't hear it sing
But you can hear it as it flies
So don't you believe them
They'll destroy you with their lies
They only see the obvious
They see the sun go down but they don't see it rise
This one bird didn't leave you
You can hear it as it flies
It's not very loud
But you can hear it if you try
So don't you believe them
Yes, it's true, someday everything dies
We won't let that defeat us
We can't hear him sing but we can hear it as it flies
