mockingbird
Mockingbirds sing Sing me what the Lord was singing On the day He made the water The color of the blues Sing me that song Sing me to till the heavens rising On the day He made the water The color of my baby's eyes Love her in the ways you want to be loved Love her in the ways she wants to be loved Love her in the ways you want to be loved But the way I'm loving her It must not be enough Cause in the way she cries It only tears me up I feel dead inside and dying And if you give up Don't give up on love Don't give up on love The rivers they run They run until they get too tired Until they run behind the houses And they become a creek When I was a child I ran until the creek became a river When it turned into the ocean I wondered why He'd made it so deep Love her in the ways you want to be loved Love her in the ways you want to be loved Love her in the ways you want to be loved But the way I'm loving her Must not be enough Cause the way she cries It only tears me up I feel dead inside and dying Don't give up Cause in a way she's crying It only tears me up I feel dead inside and dying Give up Don't give up on love Don't give up on love Love her in the ways you want to be loved Love her in the ways you want to be loved Love her in the ways you want to be loved Sometimes it ain't enough Sometimes it ain't enough But don't give up on love
