Lynn Anderson - Snowbird Lyrics
Beneath this snowy mantle cold and cleanthe unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to greenthe snowbird sings a song he always singsand speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in springwhen I was young my heart was young then tooanything that it would tell me, that`s the thing that I would dobut now I feel such emptiness withinfor the thing that I want most in life is the thing I can`t winSpread your wings and fly awayand take the snow back with youwhere it came from on that daythe one I love forever is untrueand if I could , you know that I wouldfly away with youthe breeze along the river seems to saythat he`ll only break my heart again, should I decide to stayso little snowbird take me with you when you goto that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flowspread your tiny wings and fly awayand take the snow back with youwhere it came from on that daythe one I love forever is untrueand if I could , you know that I wouldfly away with you
