Look up at the sky   A tree's outstretched branches   And the birds flying by   In search of way   To hide little heartbeats from dangerous days   Once the time is right   The earth it will welcome the newest of life      It will take them away   And the space that will remain   It will be empty and still   It will be empty and still      Look into your eyes   Oak colored circles where sorrow resides   They once knew a bird   That sang through the branches   For all to be heard   But the time wasnt right   The eggs they were broken before they saw light      They were taken away   And the space that remained   It was empty and still   It was empty and still      Look up at the sky   The tree's outstretched branches   Are empty tonight   The birds have all gone   The birds have all gone      They were taken away   And the space that remains   It is empty and still   It is empty and still
