Bird In Flight

The Parlotones

Desire imitations
Fading passions, You say I don't hold you
The way I used to

Fantastic illusions
Oh harsh assumptions, You say I don't kiss you
The way I used to

And there's a hole where your heart used to be
Heaven help you oh
Hate where love used to be
Heaven but I'll help you oh

Stop holding on so damn tight
Love is like, it's like a bird in flight
The tighter you grip
The looser it slips
Love is like, it's like a bird in flight

Life of millionaires
Such extraordinaire, I bet they don't kiss
Any differently
Mmmm and life of movie stars
Their perfect scripted parts, I bet they don't taste
Any differently

And our night lives where light used to stay
Heaven help you oh
There's lines on your face where a smile used to play
Heaven but I'll help you oh

Stop holding on so damn tight
Love is like, it's like a bird in flight
The tighter you grip
The looser it slips
Love is like, it's like a bird in flight

And there's a hole where your heart used to be
And heaven help you oh
Hate where love used to be
Heaven but I'll help you oh

Stop holding on so damn tight
Love is like, it's like a bird in flight
The tighter you grip
The looser it slips
Love is like, it's like a bird in flight (Holding on, holding on)
It's like a bird in flight (Holding on, holding on)
Flight (Holding on, holding on)
It's like a bird in flight (Holding on)
