Little Bird

If we take this bird in

With its broken leg

We could nurse it

She said

Come inside

For a little lie down with me

If you fall asleep

It wouldn’t be the worst thing

But when I wake up

Your make-up is on my shoulder

And tell me, if I lie down

Would you stay now

And let me hold you?

But if I kissed you

Will your mouth read this truth?

Darling, how I miss you

Strawberries taste how lips do

And it’s not complete yet

Mustn’t get our feet wet

'Cause that leads to regret

Diving in too soon

And I’ll owe it all to you

My little bird

My little bird

If we take a walk out

In the morning dew

We could lay down

So I’m next to you

Come inside

For a little home-made tea

If you fall asleep

Then at least you’re next to me

And if I wake up

You see, it’s late, love

Go back to sleep

I’m covered by nature

And I’m safe now

Underneath this oak tree

With you beside me

But if I kissed you

Will your mouth read this truth?

Darling, how I miss you

Strawberries taste how lips do

And it’s not complete yet

Mustn’t get our feet wet

'Cause that leads to regret

Diving in too soon

And I’ll owe it all to you

My little bird

My little bird

My little bird

My little bird

And of all these things

I’m sure of

I’m not quite certain

Of your love

And you made me scream

But then I made you cry

When I left that little bird

With its broken leg to die

But if I kissed you

Will your mouth read this truth?

Darling, how I miss you

Strawberries taste how lips do

And it’s not complete yet

Mustn’t get our feet wet

'Cause that leads to regret

Diving in too soon

But I’ll owe it all to you

My little bird

My little bird whoa oh oh

My little bird

My little bird

You’re my little bird
