Lyrics
Magpie
Words and music by Gordon Moir and George Paterson
Magpie, come steal my heart away
I kept it in a box for you
To come and claim someday
Magpie, ever a part of me
I long for your soothing song
To return and comfort me
So many miles keep us so far apart
Though there?s never a moment goes by
When you?re not in my dreams or my thoughts of you
Keeping me warm
Til the day you fly back to me
Magpie, come steal my heart away
I kept it in a box for you
To come and claim someday
Magpie, ever a part of me
I long for your soothing song
To return and comfort me
In your embrace, you speak without saying
A word or a sound, just the thoughts you?ve been keeping
But taking you from cartoons that you?re watching
Is harder than learning to fly
Magpie, come steal my heart away
I kept it in a box for you
To come and claim someday
Magpie, ever a part of me
I long for your soothing song
To return and comfort me
Return and comfort me
