Sweetie, Maybe They're Just Birds Lyrics

I was there when the blue sky broke in September

Working up on the hundred seventh floor

I'm the front page picture guy, remember?

When the first plane hit I was sitting there bored

I'm the falling man

I'm the falling man

Mmmmmmm

Mundane as a Monday morning, that's Tuesday

Woke up for work about quarter to eight

Sat with my wife and drank a cup of coffee

We didn't kiss because we were running late

I'm the falling man

I'm the falling man

Mmmmmmm

As I'm floating down

I hear a mother on the ground

Say "Sweetie, maybe they're just birds"

I'm flying south now for the winter

I'm a superhero at last

Wish I'd focused less on my future

Futures can disappear so fast

I'm the falling man

I'm the falling man

Mmmmmmm

As I'm floating down

I hear a mother on the ground

Say "Sweetie, maybe they're just birds"

"Sweetie, maybe they're just birds"
