I don’t want to take away from you anything that belongs to you
The world wiil do that enough, I don’t need to do it too.
And so I’ll wait, watch and listen for the wind to blow on through
And until I feel it come my way at you.
You were still so young and when you flew away so high
You were lookin’ for a home and sometimes hoping you would die
And though your wings are achin’ tired, you just want to come on down
Rare bird’s holdin’ out for higher ground
But I’m about to hear you singin’, it’s a breathless sort of sound
And to catch you in those moments when you think no one’s around
Well it is clear that it is different, that’s no secret, that’s no shame
Sing out it’s how many found their way.
You were still so young and when you flew away so high
You were lookin’ for a home and sometimes hoping you would die
And though your wings are achin’ tired, you just want to come on down
Rare bird’s holdin’ out for higher ground
And the sun sets from a vale, they must be amazin’
And it’s hard to give that up, though we’re trust that you are cravin’
But you wait and watch and listen for the wind to blow on through
And until you feel it come we will love you.
You were still so young and when you flew away so high
You were lookin’ for a home and sometimes hoping you would die
And though your wings are achin’ tired you just want to come on down
Rare bird’s holdin’ out for higher ground
Though your wings are achin’ tired you just want to come on down
Rare bird’s holdin’ out for higher ground
