Lyrics: Mountain Goats, The. Bluejays And Cardinals.

bluejays and cardinals all come out to play

highway traffic gets out of your way

skies clear up if they're overcast.

pit bulls are gentle when you come past.



stars come out of hiding for you

and i would too.

cause this world couldn't hold you

you slipped free

yeah this world couldn't hold you

you slipped free

without me.





new sheen all over everything

when you open up your mouth to sing.

baseballs travel further when you watch them fly.

apples fatten on the trees when you walk by.

you bring something unreplaceble to each and every day.

or you used to anyway.

but this world couldn't hold you

and you slipped free

yeah this world couldn't hold you

and you slipped free

without me.
