Taylor Hawkins - Feathers lyrics

[Verse 1] History's made its mark in anger As everybody knows, it's what we do It's nothing new Next chords struck are fault and failure And we both know that finger points on cue There's blame for two Do you really want him calling, Newo? Do you really think he's coming back to you? Oh, once the world stops spinning, read that writing on the wall (Is there) another, Newo? Is there cushion, just enough to break the fall? Oh, don't you cry Just lie there baby in the past Cause if you want it all [Chorus] Right now Hide your feathers on the back porch, baby He's coming home, for you've been such a liar Hide your feathers, little back porch lady You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out (all over the world) [Verse 2] Hear me scream outside your window I'm only here to make my peace with you There's something new It was our time, that day in our lives If I could do things different, what would I choose? Oh, don't you cry mama Please don't cry mama Oh, don't you cry no, no [Chorus] Right now Hide your feathers on the back porch, baby He's coming home, for you've been such a liar Hide your feathers, little back porch lady You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out [Breakdown] No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy When there's no more room for love You'll sell her off to the sharks No other could wait for a lover to embrace, boy When there's no more room for love You'll sell her off to the sharks [Solo] [Chorus] Right now Hide your feathers on the back porch, baby He's coming home, for you've been such a liar Hide your feathers, little back porch lady You're too old enough to cry your sorry eyes out [Outro] Wait a minute, little back porch lady Wait a minute, little back porch lady, I'm in love Wait a minute, little back porch lady (you've been such a liar) Why don't you cry momma? Why won't you cry, no no Wait a minute, little back porch lady Wait a minute, little back porch lady, I'm in love Wait a minute, little back porch lady (you've been such a liar) Why won't you cry momma? Why won't you cry, no no
