Lyrics
Sparrow
I shut the front door and walked to the steps outside.
And I saw a little sparrow, flying by.
Your life is short, little sparrow, there's no time to spend.
So, hasten your frost bitten wings, and find, a warmer wind.
Little sparrow, please guide me away with you today.
This town's grown cold. I'm growing old. Let's fly away.
For the realities of life have come to bear the truth.
And it's not a funny time. Knowing nothing in your prime,
While losing your youth.
.
Sparrow, fly me away with you today.
There's no more summer song.
I must move along,
And stop living yesterday.
Sparrow we better be on our way.
Let's jump the nearest cloud. Head for a sweeter sound.
And forget yesterday.
Little sparrow, guide me away with you today.
For this town grown cold.
I'm growing old.
Let's fly away.
.
