[Verse 1]
~#**************#~
“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
~#**************#~
And if you fall asleep, it wouldnt be the worst thing
~#**************#~
But when I wake up and your makeup is on my shoulder
~#**************#~
And tell me if I lie down, would you stay now?
~#**************#~
Let me hold ya, oh
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But if I kiss you, will your mouth read this truth?
~#**************#~
Darling, how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do
~#**************#~
And its not complete yet, mustnt get our feet wet
~#**************#~
‘Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon
~#**************#~
And Ill owe it all to you, oh, my little bird
~#**************#~
My little bird
~#**************#~
[Verse 2]
~#**************#~
If we take a walk out in the morning dew
~#**************#~
We can lay down, so Im next to you
~#**************#~
Come inside for a little homemade tea
~#**************#~
And if you fall asleep, then, at least, youre next to me
~#**************#~
And if I wake up, you say, “Its late, love, get back to sleep”
~#**************#~
Im covered by nature and Im safe now
~#**************#~
Underneath this oak tree with you beside me
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But if I kiss you, will your mouth read this truth?
~#**************#~
Darling, how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do
~#**************#~
And its not complete yet, mustnt get our feet wet
~#**************#~
‘Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon
~#**************#~
And Ill owe it all to you, oh, my little bird
~#**************#~
My little bird, my little bird, my little bird
~#**************#~
[Bridge]
~#**************#~
And of all these things Im sure of, Im not quite certain of your love
~#**************#~
You make me scream and then, I made you cry
~#**************#~
When I left that little bird with its broken leg to die
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
But if I kiss you, will your mouth read this truth?
~#**************#~
Darling, how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do
~#**************#~
And its not complete yet, mustnt get our feet wet
~#**************#~
‘Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon
~#**************#~
But Ill owe it all to you, oh, my little bird
~#**************#~
My little bird, whoa oh oh oh whoa
~#**************#~
My little bird, my little bird, my little bird
~#**************#~
Youre my little bird
