Hi everyone! - Just a simple - live to camera/through the camera microphone - song! (Sorry for the not very good sound quality.) (And my goofiness. How embarrassing. Lol.)

Music & Lyrics by Holly Kirby...

Once upon a fairytale
We walked along the lover's trail
Running from the rainclouds
As they kicked our heels and said;
"You've been running for a long long time
If I were now to make you mine
Would you regret not leaving him before?"

So I open my eyes for to see that we're a lie
But there's one thing here to quell my hurt inside...

Oh little bird said the word
Find me out on your travels
'Cos my heart is unravelling
Without your song
I don't know where I'm going
But I'm happy just for knowing
That you're always sitting pretty
In the tallest tree

Don't you cry tonight my love
But look up to the stars above
Find our constellation
To console your secret tears
There is nothing lost and nothing gained
These things are only rearranged
Now I sit in the corner of your mind

So I open my eyes, and the world, to my surprise
Keeps on turning, like the thoughts I left behind

Oh little bird said the word
Find me out on your travels
'Cos my heart is unravelling
Without your song
I don't know where I'm going
But I'm happy just for knowing
That you're always sitting pretty
In the tallest tree
