verse 1
I look up to-oo-oo the - little bi-i-ird that glides acro-oss the sky-y-y
He sings the cleare-est - melody-ee-ee-ee. It makes me wa-ant to cry-y-y-y
It makes me want to sit right down and cry cry cry-y - yeah.
verse 2
I walk alo-o-ong the - city stree-ee-eets so dark with ra-age and fea-ear
And I I wish that I-i-i could - be that bi-ird and fly-y away from he-e-ere
I wish I had the wings to fly away from here - yeah.
But my my I feel so low. My my where do I go?
My my what do I know? My my we reap what we sow.
They always said that you knew best but
This little bird's fallen out of that nest now
I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed
So I've just got to put these wings to test

For I am ju-u-ust a-a - troubled so-o-o-oul who's weighted - weighted to the ground
Give me the stre-e-ength to - carry o-o-on 'till I - can lay my burden dow-ow-own
Give me the strength to lay this burden down down down yeah
Give me the strength to lay it down
But my my I feel so low. My my where do I go?
My my what do I know? My my we reap what we sow.
They always said that you knew best but
This little bird's fallen out of that nest now
I've got a feeling that it might have been blessed
So I've just got to put these wings to test
But my my I feel so low. My my where do I go?
My my what do I know? My my we reap what we sow.
