If we take this bird in, with its broken leg,
We can nurse it, she said,
Come inside for a little lie down with me,
And if you fall asleep, it wouldnt be the worse thing.
But when I wake up, and your make up is on my shoulder,
And tell me if I lie down, would you stay now?
And let me hold you, oh.
But if I kiss you will your mouth read this truth,
Darling how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do,
And its not complete yet, mustnt get our feet wet,
Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon,
And Ill owe it all to you, oh, my little bird,
My little bird.
If we take a walk out, in the morning dew,
We can lie down, so Im next to you,
Come inside for a little home made tea,
And if you fall asleep, at least youre next to me,
And if I wake up, say its late love, go back to sleep,
Im covered by nature, and Im safe now,
Underneath this oak tree, with you beside me.
But if I kiss you will your mouth read this truth,
Darling how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do,
And its not complete yet, mustnt get our feet wet,
Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon,
And Ill owe it all to you, oh, my little bird,
My little bird,
My little bird,
My little bird.
And of all these things Im sure of, Im not quite certain of your love,
You make me scream, then I made you cry,
When I left that little bird with its broken leg to die.
But if I kiss you will your mouth read this truth,
Darling how I miss you, strawberries taste how lips do,
And its not complete yet, mustnt get our feet wet,
Cause that leads to regret, diving in too soon,
But Ill owe it all to you, oh, my little bird,
My little bird, whoa, oh, oh, oh, whoa,
My little bird,
My little bird,
Youre my little bird.
