Lyrics
[Intro]
Metro!
It's Lil' Metro on that beat
[Verse 1]
Hummingbird, summer sun
Has it brought my life back?
Hanging in the balance
Have you brought the light back?
Pen pal on a night shift
She's who I get away with
Realizing she might
Be all I need in this life
[Verse 2]
When I saw a cold snap
I wasn't with the season
Tag was on the ankle
And outside there was a ceiling
In here paper walls are pushing back on you
Like eventually you push through
The moment that you realize
[Chorus]
And hummingbird
I know that's our time (That's our time)
But stay on
Stay on, stay on with me
[Chorus]
And hummingbird
I can never unsee
What you've shown me
Stay on, stay on with me
[Verse 3]
Hummingbird, summer sun
Has it brought my life back?
Hanging in the balance
Have you brought the light back?
Pen pal on a night shift
She's who I get away with
Realizing she might
Be all I need in this life
[Verse 4]
The moment when you realize
There's someone there that needs you
Lap band on the feelings
I tax them for no reason
I added love
'Cause love is unconditional
I count on love
I count on love 'cause love is unconditional within reason
[Chorus]
And hummingbird (Hummingbird)
I know that's our time (Know that's our time)
But stay on (Stay on, stay on)
Stay on, stay on with me
[Chorus]
And hummingbird (Hummingbird)
I can never unsee (Never)
What you've shown me
Stay on, stay on with me
[Bridge]
Would I sign up again?
Would I sign up again?
In the night on a slow song
Forget the time like life is long
Wind speaks to the thousand strong
[Bridge]
Would I sign up again?
Would I sign up again?
In the night on a slow song
Forget the time like life is long
Unconditional within reason
[Chorus]
And hummingbird (Hummingbird)
I know that's our time (Know that's our time)
But stay on (Stay on, stay on)
Stay on, stay on with me (Stay on, stay on)
[Chorus]
And hummingbird (Hummingbird)
I can never unsee (I could never)
What you've shown me
Stay on, stay on with me
