CJ Starnes - Hummingbirds Lyrics

I had a dream last night we were married
In that house you always talked about
You were rushing to get the kids to school
Packing their lunches
Reviewing their spelling words
It was hummingbirds
Woke up bleeding from my mouth
I bit my tongue right through
Well I broke the habit
I guess that I'd had it
Not saying the things I need to

Like it grows old real fast
How much you can love and not get it back
Oh were we too attached
It's a shame how often goodbyes last
I thought we were better than that
I thought I was stronger at last

There's a shadow on my shoulder
Always whispers in my ear
That I'm so angry all of the time
I should be alone another year
I didn't say it how you needed
Must've written it down a thousand times
All the things I would scream at the top of my lungs
If I wasn't so busy saying I'm fine

Like it grows old real fast
How much you can love and not get it back
Oh, were we too attached
It's a shame how often goodbyes last
I thought we were better than that
I thought I was stronger at last

I don't wanna be a temporary fix
An ember off the fire
Caught up in a winter wind and I hope
When you think of me that it really hits you I'm gone
And I'm more than someone you miss

It grows old real fast
How much you can love and not get it back
Oh were we too attached
It's a shame how often goodbyes last
I thought we were better than that
I thought I was stronger at last

I had a dream last night we were married
In that house you always talked about
