Little Bird

Little bird, little bird
Won't you sing me a song?
I may not know all the words
But I’ll try to sing along
Little bird, my little bird
Let 'em talk, that's what they do
But no amount of saying something
Ever made it true
Head up, eyes wide
All will be alright
Hold tight, stay gold
It hurts bad, I know
Take those hollow bones
Use them well, use them right
Let them carry you
Through the darkness of the night
Head up, eyes wide
All will be alright
Hold tight, stay gold
It hurts bad, I know
Little bird, little bird
Won’t you sing me a song?
I may not know all the words
But I'll try to sing along
