Love Birds

I wish i was a lovebird
 never lonely, one of a pair
 locked in a cage with the one i love
 someone who is always there

 Somebody i can sing to
 who's song is as pure as mine
 to spend every waking hour with 
a better pastime i am yet to find

 to climb my perch and ladder
 surronded by the bars
 to be hung up high away from harm
 How lucky we lovebirs are

 I wish i was a Lovebird
 for when my lover dies
 I will gladly leave my life 
to be right by her side
