Lyrics
There's a scarecrow standing in a farmer's field
What it's guarding has not been revealed
I can't find something that's been found before
And i won't find nothing if i close that door
If i were a bird
If i were a foolish bird
I'd listen to my fear
And fly away from here
But if i were a bird
If i were a wise bird
I'd listen to my heart
And find a treasure waiting in the field
There's a scarecrow living in my memory
It just hangs around and stares at me
With eyes that look but cannot see
There's a scarecrow living in my memory
If i were a bird
If i were a foolish bird
I'd listen to my fear
And fly away from here
But if i were a bird
If i were a wise bird
I'd listen to my heart
And find a treasure waiting in the field
Everybody leaves the garden
Everybody needs a home
Everybody is scared of dying
But no one wants to roll away the stone
Go on a roll away the stone
(repeat)
There's a scarecrow wherever the church bell rings
Terrified by the gift she brings
We can't change nothing without suffering
And even scarecrow's need to hear the songs we sing
If i were a bird
If i were a foolish bird
I'd listen to my fear
And fly away from here
But if i were a bird
If i were a wise bird
I'd listen to my heart
And find a treasure waiting in the field
I am, i am, a child of God
I am, i am, a child of God
(repeat)
Let the fear be gone
Let the fear be gone
Let the fear be gone
You're a child of God
(repeat)
I am, i am, a child of God
I am, i am, a child of God
Let the fear be gone
Let the fear be gone
Let the fear be gone
You're a child of God
I am, i am, a child of God
I am, i am, a child of God
