Kate Nash- Birds

She was waitin` at the station
He was gettin` off the train
He didn't have a ticket
So he had to bum through the barriors, again.
Well the ticket inspector saw him rushin` through
He said, girl you don't know how much I missed you
But we better run cause I
Haven't got the funds to pay
This fine
She said fine

So they ran out of the station
And jumped onto a bus with
Two of yesterdays travel cards
And two bottles of bud
And he said you look well nice.

Well she was wearin a skirt
And he thought she looked nice and
Yeah she didn't really care about
Anything else because she only
Wanted him to think that she looked nice
And he did

But he was lookin at her yeah
All funny in the eye
She said c`mon boy
Tell me what you're thinkin` of
Don't be shy
He said alright I'll try

Well the stars up in the sky
And the leaves in the tree
Oh the broke and missed branches
Pop inbetween
All of my air in the world
Is how much that I like you

She said what?
He said let me try and explain again

(chorus)
Right birds can fly so high
And they can shit on your head
Yeah they can almost fly into your eye
And make you feel so scared
But when you look at them
And you see that they are beautiful

That's how I feel about you

(chorus)

That's how I feel about you
Yeah that's how I feel about you

She said what?
He said you
She said what are you talking about?
He said you

(chorus/chorus repeat)

And that's how I feel about you
She said thanks I like you too
He said cool

Esta é uma daquelas músicas que conseguem transformar a alegria de um momento em nostalgia, mas aquela nostalgia boa, que nos faz recordar bons momentos. Há músicas assim... que nos fazem lembrar momentos, momentos que ficam tão gravados na memória como um desenho delapidado num diamante... e também pessoas, pessoas que ficam tão agarradas ao coração que quase seria preciso um transplante para as arrancar de nós...

De vez em quando sabe bem trazer ao de cima velhas lembranças... que talvez não sejam assim tão velhas, mas que parecia estarem enterradas perto do núcleo terrestre...


"Happiness is a sad song..."
