When No Birds Sang

The sun’s new place In a sky of empty space When no birds sang Tell me Was Hillary awake Did she hear me leave Or the sound of breaking eggs Tell me, tell me Will you still enjoy the view Through the smoke into the blue Tell me Father can you help explain Tell me how the sound escapes Through 20,000 window panes The same old place In a sky of empty space When no birds sang Tell me Can you help explain Tell me how the sound escapes Through 20,000 window panes
