Nadine

You were always bigger than those flower pots

And I know that there were days you settled in

But even in the grit, you'd find a way to dream

To look outside the changing of the wind

Pictures faded slowly out of focus

When you said you were moving to Chicago in the spring

Windows closed up and colors turned to black and white

And bottles kept me hanging by a string

You believed that somewhere there were answers

Inside of me, still frames in my mind

And hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, Nadine

And sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, Nadine

Every day's a forest of asperity

When you think about the life you could have found

I hope one day the sun will find its way to me

Cause the carousel up there sure beats the ground

You believed that somewhere there were answers

Inside of me, forever in my mind

And hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, Nadine

And sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, Nadine

Nadine

Hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, Nadine

Sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, Nadine

Hummingbirds, they're singing all these songs about you, Nadine

And sunny fireflies, they burn away without you, Nadine
