Original Songs by Kent Newsome

Two Birds


I saw two birds fly
Out of the corner of my eye
Well there you go
Four more quarters down the drain
With nothing to show

I wish I'd kept one
But that's easier said than done
Now I've lost two
So I'm rolling on the floor
Crying over you

Chorus:
Two can be one too many
But it's a whole lot better
Than not having any
Feathers fall from the sky
Tears fall from my eyes
While two birds fly

I'd give one away
If only life would work that way
If you could choose
Which one to put in a cage
Which one to let loose

I kept holding on
Until both of my birds were gone
What's done is done
Why wasn't I satisfied
When I had just one

Chorus:
Two can be one too many
But it's a whole lot better
Than not having any
Feathers fall from the sky
Tears fall from my eyes
While two birds fly

Tears fall from my eyes
While two birds fly
