Snowbird Lyrics


Beneath this snowy mantle cold and clean
The unborn grass lies waiting
For its coat to turn to green
The snowbird sings the song he always sings
And speaks to me of flowers
That will bloom again in springWhen 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's
The thing thing that I can't winSpread 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 youThe breeze along the river seems to say
That he'll only break me heart again
Should I decide to stay

So little snowbird take me with you
When you go
To that land of gentle breezes
Where the peaceful waters flow
