Little bird on a tree you better fly
If you stay on that tree you're gonna die
Little bird of the forest say to me
Why happiness just can never be?
Who put the poison in the dart?
That hurts my soul and kills my heart
That made my whole life fall apart
This passion hurts and breaks my heart
And haunts my dreams and breaks my heart
The forest I love went up in flames
And now the fire has gone to rain
And now the rain has gone to stream
Where is my love, my long lost dream?
The ashes flew away
And scattered far away
And where is my love, little bird didn't say
Little bird on a tree, you better fly
Little bird of the sky, you better fly
If you stay on that tree you're gonna die
Little bird get away, take to the skies
Go find the love that never dies
Where is my love, my only song
That used to laugh and sing along
That used to light up, cheer my life
That used to light up my poor heart
That used to light up all the darkness
Where is my path, it was washed away?
Where are my tracks erased by rain?
Where is my house, the river claimed?
Where is my love, my sole refrain?
My love has gone away
And flew, and flew astray
And where is my love
That the wind took away?
Sudden bird came to rest but high it flew
Sudden bird fled the shot and winged the blue
Sudden bird of the forest say to me
Why happiness just can never be?
Go ask the Lord heavens above
What ever happened to my love
What ever happened to my love
Go ask the saddest mourning dove
What ever happened to my love
The bright morning light was burned by day
The day grew old, I've spent my day
The sun went down and twilight came
And sudden night was back again
The moon across the sky
Grew dim and hid away
And it was so cold
When the star brought the day
Little bird of the sky, you better fly
Little bird of the sky, you better fly
You fly, fly, fly, fly
