Little Bird (Feat. Kelly Willis & Bruce Robison)

Little bird come sit upon my window sill
Sat there through the falling rain
I watched that little bird upon my window sill
Saw my thoughts of you go by again

And the picture of my face
reflected on the pane
Is it tears I see or is it rain?

I remember how we talked before we said goodbye
Too young to know the world outside our door
Now the miles of time have built a wall my love
Though I tried I just can't tear it down

I said that love takes many shapes it has no form
It has no boundaries has no grips to hold
But time will take the foolish hand a twist will change the pain
Make the heart look back with eyes grown cold

No regrets about the past, there's nothing I can change
Life's a road you walk just one way down
But lookin' back I do recall that frame of time
When the world was love and time was just a thought

Many things go many ways the course of life is such
We all must pick that road of life to walk
And age gives off old memories like handnotes in a log
Where the world is time and love is just a thought

So as the thoughts go tumbling back I wonder how you look
Wonder if you've seen that little bird
and I wonder if he's sat upon your window sill
I wonder if you'll ever hear these words

Little bird come sit upon my window sill
Sat there through the falling rain
I watched that little bird upon my window sill
Saw my thoughts of you go by again
