Faerie Dance Lyrics
i thought i would know what to do when the time came
i thought i would know when to leave when the time came
i thought i could recognize the sign
i thought i would know when the planets had aligned
i was wrong, i didn't know anything at all
i was wrong, i didn't know anything at all
saving all the letters you wrote
and i'm all alone for the first time
and i can't help but wonder
what's gone wrong
then fell asleep under a tree
got woken up by birds and bees
they're hard at work, but they're hardly workin'
there might be rain, but not for certain
followed the trail to the wild flowers
i cut as many as i could handle
i was workin' hard, but hardly workin'
i heard the train, but not for certain
oh, we're living in the wild life
we're living in the wild life
fell asleep under a tree,
got woken up by birds and bees,
they're hard at work, but they're hardly workin',
there might be rain, but not for certain
i thought i would know when to leave when the time came
i thought i could recognize the sign
i thought i would know when the planets had aligned
i was wrong, i didn't know anything at all
i was wrong, i didn't know anything at all
and i'm all alone for the first time
and i can't help but wonder
what's gone wrong
got woken up by birds and bees
they're hard at work, but they're hardly workin'
there might be rain, but not for certain
i cut as many as i could handle
i was workin' hard, but hardly workin'
i heard the train, but not for certain
we're living in the wild life
got woken up by birds and bees,
they're hard at work, but they're hardly workin',
there might be rain, but not for certain

This is my favourite song by plants and animals. I am extremely shocked that no one has commented their thoughts on this one yet. Personally, this song gets me everytime.. its like 3 songs in one really. love it!
I agree great song, great album!
Great song on a great album. First time I saw them, this was the song that made me decide to become a fan/ buy there shirt. The part after all the chaos and it breaks into the "fell asleep part" was life changing.
