Little Bird

It was cold the night he left as the seasons came to pass
And the summer went away and the rain fell like glass
And the ocean's mist gave winters kiss the fog was all around
I searched the whole town over but my love could not be found

Found freedom in the pain when he turned and walked away
And my true thoughts were revealed with the passing of each day
And I know that this is true because when I went outside
I felt a dove fly out from somewhere deep inside

Oh little bird oh little bird why do you fly so high
Why won't you come back and be with me tonight
I cannot and I will not fly down to be with thee
Your chains have released you and you released me

She flew up in the sky soared over our little town
And she still is there today and she will not come down
She soars oh so high above the mist and rolling sea
I pray her to come down where she belongs with me
