You're mexico in the winter

You're tennessee in the spring

You come and go like a whisper

Leaving me the most beautiful dream.

Hummingbird, hummingbird

You're the sound of these strings

Hummingbird, hummingbird

On my skin rest your wings

I'll hold you in my loving arms

But I'll let you fly free

Hummingbird, hummingbird

Now your heart beats in me.

I've been waiting all my life for your colors

And I've been watering the flowers while you're gone

I've been looking out the window for a glimmer

Not knowing you've been with me all along.

Hummingbird, hummingbird

You're the sound of these strings

Hummingbird, hummingbird

On my skin rest your wings

I'll hold you in my loving arms

But I'll let you fly free

Hummingbird, hummingbird

Now your heart beats in me.

Ooh, I'll never try to cage you

Ooh, take the sky that god gave you.

Hummingbird, hummingbird

You're the sound of these strings

Hummingbird, hummingbird

On my skin rest your wings

I'll hold you in my loving arms

But I'll let you fly free

Hummingbird, hummingbird

Now your heart beats in me.

Hummingbird, hummingbird

Now your heart beats in me.
