Indigo Girls - Able To Sing lyrics

I went to a wedding, I brought a song I folded it up like a list of thanks at a Praisathon The bride was Snow White, the groom was strong Trailers as endless as the day is long Some days are fairy tales, some days belie The four and twenty black birds baked in a pie Could open up their sweet throats to serenade a king That's a lot of heat to take and still be able to sing, sing, sing It's not been proven hard to bring unending start And even easier to die from a broken heart Oh, was a blind force trauma from the fireworks That someone is celebrating while another gets hurt Some days are fairy tales, some days belie The four and twenty black birds baked in a pie Could open up their sweet throats to serenade a king That's a lot of heat to take and still be able to sing Still I see them in the night With their blood red wings alike While the rocket's red glare Gives proof through the night If some things not right Some things not right In the book of Steven there is no prophecy 'Cause there was no need for God in the way things came to be Some live by faith, some live by proof They don't meet up on a friendly road or live under the same roof Some days are fairy tales, some days belie Four and twenty black birds baked in a pie Could open up their sweet throats to serenade a king That's a lot of heat to take and still be able to sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing And the birds fall hard like black rain Jerking the earth with a portent stain Beat like drums, they beat like a wings Are we looking? Are we listening? Sing, sing, sing, sing Sing, sing, sing
