Hummingbird Lyrics

hmmmm.... I think she is dying, of cancer or something. She lies in her bed and he sits beside it, watching her dying, not able to do anything anymore.

The other explanation is that they went to bed, and when he wakes up the next morning she is gone. Probably just a one night stand or something.

This song is sad and beautiful, but sometimes a bit TOO beautiful = kitschy. I can play it on my guitar.
