People don't sing about days that didn't happen
And people don't cry for tears that weren't shed
Time doesn't stop when you close your eyes
And our big old clock will keep on ticking until it dies

Can you hear the hum of the hummingbird
Can you smell the breeze carrying leaves that it lured
Can you cry for your mother and your father too
Can you breathe until there's no air left in you

What if there were no wings on a butterfly
And what if we walked 1000 days
How long would it take if we all held hands
And how many miles could we go before our heads layed down

Can you hear the hum of the hummingbird
Can you smell the breeze carrying leaves that it lured
Can you cry for your mother and your father too
Can you breathe until there's no air left in you

No one's going home tonight without a heartache and moonlight
Keep on moving on until there's
Nothing else to move on to and we're gone

Can you hear the hum of the hummingbird
Can you smell the breeze carrying leaves that it lured
Can you cry for your mother and your father too
Can you breathe until there's no air left in you
Can you breathe until there's no air left in you
