My Brightest Diamond
My Brightest Diamond - The Robin's Jar songtekst
Je score:
Once we found a robin In our backyard It was already dead But we were so sure That things weren't gone too far So we prayed to God above That He'd bring it back to us And we put it in a jar And waited, and waited But mama made us bury it Mama made us bury it In the backyard I wished to be just like my best friend She was the brightest star in the room Yeah but we didn't know what we had With the world pressing in On her backyard She fell in backwards She fell in backwards With the world pressing in On her backyard She fell in backwards We prayed to God above That He'd bring her back to us So we put her in a box We put her in a box And waited For something to happen But nothing happened But mama made me bury her Mama made me bury her Mama made me bury her in the backyard
