Lyrics
Iris are there words tomorrow
You wouldn't speak today
Don't you see those bluebirds flying
Across the cityscape
Old iris can't afford to
With her weary eyes
Stay awake at every corner
No matter how she tries
Iris don't you
You know they warned you
Stay away from the world today
They're gonna hold you like there's no tomorrow
They're gonna make you wish you never followed
Iris don't look over your shoulder
Without the sun outside
Close the doors or lock the windows
Don't you wanna cry
Iris don't you
You know they warned you
Stay away from those friends today
They're gonna kick you down and turn your head round
Make it look like you were meant to be bound
Iris don't you
You know they warned you
Stay away from the world today
They're gonna hold you like there's no tomorrow
They're gonna make you wish you never followed
Iris are there words tomorrow
You wouldn't speak today
Don't you see those bluebirds flying
Across the cityscape
