Little bird
You don’t know your worth
In constant hunger
But when you leave the earth
Oh how you fly
Oh, Little bird
I don’t know what they all heard
But I know you love her
I hope you are never hurt
But everything dies
I wish I could ease your pain
I wish I could save you
I don’t want you to feel the shame
I wish I was braver
But I am not
At least not a lot
Soaring so high above us all
Looking down diving on us
Fly too high above us all
And you will fall upon us
Fly (sweet angel fly)
Cry ((oh, don’t you cry)
Fly (so incredibly high)
Kiss the sky, kiss the sky
Only love can lift you up
In defiance of gravity
Only love can lift you up
Above all the depravity
Only love can lift you up
Leave behind the tragedy
Only love can lift you up
Above all the insanity
Flap your wings
Ride the air
When you sing
You take us there
Little bird
You don’t know your place
It’s absurd
That you you don’t know your grace
When you fly
When you cry
Please don’t die
Please don’t die
Fly (high) (in the sky)
Fly (high) (in the sky)
Fly (high) (in the sky)
Fly (high) (but forever shy)
