| [00:10.97] |
Beneath it's snowy mantle cold and clean, |
| [00:15.89] |
The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green. |
| [00:20.44] |
The snowbird sings the song he always sings, |
| [00:25.64] |
And speaks to me of flowers that will bloom again in spring. |
| [00:31.53] |
When I was young my heart was young then, too. |
| [00:36.07] |
Anything that it would tell me, that's the thing that I would do. |
| [00:41.69] |
But now I feel such emptiness within, |
| [00:46.41] |
For the thing that I want most in life's the thing that I can't win. |
| [00:51.45] |
|
| [00:52.18] |
Spread your tiny wings and fly away, |
| [00:56.70] |
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day. |
| [01:02.44] |
What I love forever is untrue, |
| [01:07.27] |
And if I could you know that I would fly away with you. |
| [01:12.63] |
|
| [01:13.28] |
The breeze along the river seems to say, |
| [01:17.19] |
That he'll only break my heart again should I decide to stay. |
| [01:22.52] |
So, little snowbird, take me with you when you go, |
| [01:27.22] |
To that land of gentle breezes where the peaceful waters flow. |
| [01:32.55] |
|
| [01:33.37] |
Spread your tiny wings and fly away, |
| [01:37.86] |
And take the snow back with you where it came from on that day. |
| [01:43.18] |
What I love forever is untrue, |
| [01:48.08] |
And if I could you know that I would fly away with you. |
| [01:53.76] |
Yeah, if I could I know that I would fly away with you. |
| [02:06.08] |
|
| [02:06.91] |
