Kent Rose - The Voice That Remembers

Lyrics

There’s a bluebird at my window
In the branches of a tree
And the sad song that he’s singing
Finds a home inside of me
 
Where there once was a heart
Now there’s just a memory
Of a loving, gentle woman
And this fool who set her free
 
Why oh why was I so blind
To a tenderness so true
Why do I make the flowers in springtime
All look like hearts of blue?
 
Hearts of blue-ooo-ooo-ooo
Hearts of blue-ooo-ooo-ooo
What does it take to make me see
All the love I had in you
Why oh why was I unkind
To the best pal I knew
Why do flowers in the springtime
Look like hearts of blue?
 
All the poets and the sages
Empty wisdom in their words
Easy lies and sweet sweet nothings
That was all I ever heard
 
Now the laughter dies around me
And the parties come to an end
All I’m left with is an empty bottle
Still just looking for one good friend
 
Why oh why was I so blind
To a tenderness so true
Why do I make the flowers in springtime
All look like hearts of blue?
