Snowbird Lyrics

Snowbird lyrics

Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean

The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn green

The snowbird sings the songs he always sings

And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring

So spread your tiny wings and fly away

And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day

The one I love forever is untrue

And if I could you know that I would fly away with you



The breeze along the river seems to say

That he would break my heart again should I decide to stay

Little snowbird take him with you when you go

To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow

I was young my heart was young then too

Anything that it would tell me that's the thing that I would do

But now I feel such emptiness within

For the thing that I want most in life is the thing that I can't win

So spread your tiny wings...

And if I could you know that I would fly away with you
