lyrics

the time is not
the time is not right
the time is not right for us

'cause
you're the same
you're the same thing
you're the same thing you always will be

a hummingbird
and I'm a killer bee
that's absurd
is what you would say

it's been a long
it's been a long day
it's been a long night
'twas a good fight

but don't you cry
'cause as far as I'm concerned
we'll be fine
we've been down this road before
we have nothing left to lose

'cause hummingbirds
buzz like killer bees
without words
they know what to say

yeah, hummingbirds
are just like killer bees
without words
they know what to say
