Little Bird

Little bird came into my life When I’d forgotten how to sing She had a broken wing, and on the night she came to me She sang for me cinders from a spark Little bird had a broken heart She sang all night In the morning I awoke to find I’d grown a smolder in my heart When it was cold and dark Little bird came into my life when I’d lost sight of the spring She was the little spark So I stoked the fire And I held her warm by it And we sang all night Little bird came into my life when I’d forgotten how to sing I had a broken wing and all the while she sang to men A broken heart will learn the words to say We’ll fly again someday So I stoked the fire And I held her warm by it And we sang all night Just like a window in my heart And I sang all night
