My Little Bird

Life constantly changes A white day could Suddenly turn black But no matter what happens I know my little bird’s got my back I keep her in my pocket She chirps and she sings She shades me from the scorching Light of Day With her gilded wings And when the Cold Night comes She keeps me company She rests next to my pillow As we share our dreams My little bird hates those Cages She’s as free as she can be When she’s Flying And soaring Out there with me Sometimes I can’t seem to comprehend Why my little bird feels upset When all I’ve given her Is the best she could ever get I guess I was wrong To think my little bird would always be there It seems to me That her heart belongs elsewhere What an awful person I would be To ask her to stay To plead to her To cry to her And beg her not to leave I guess it’s safe to say We’ll still be under the same sky If my little bird wants to leave Who am I to ask her why? So fly away little birdie And spread your charm Your distance might hurt me at first But it will do me no permanent damage or harm For I am certainly sure That this is what you need A perfect Escape A new life to lead Your colorful feathers Are what I’d mostly miss to see I love you little birdie That’s why I am setting you free To a place far away from me A place where I shall become Nothing But a crumbled photograph In your vague memory Never forget me my little bird Nor the memories we had The only thing that keeps me going Is the Fact That you are no longer sad So fly away little birdie And spread your charm Your distance might hurt me at first But it will do me no permanent damage or harm-
