(verse 1)
There's a yellow flower, by your bed;
Sadly droopin' it's perfumed head.
So you won't smell it;
I know what you'll miss.
(chorus 1)
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
A hummingbird, A hummingbird.
Oh there's a hummingbird, singing.
(verse 2)
There is the hat you made,
The clothes you wore;
Lying down on the cold dirty floor.
The colours are fading;
They'll never shine a-gain.
(chorus 2)
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
A hummingbird, A hummingbird.
Oh there's a hummingbird, singing.
(instrumental)
(verse 3)
Now the road is turning grey;
There's a shadow where you once lay.
They'll find it to-morrow,
And think you went a-lone.
(chorus 3)
And there's a hummingbird, a hummingbird,
A hummingbird, A hummingbird.
Oh there's a hummingbird, crying.
