Songbird II

​

Now the songbird

Don't know when to sing

Flew to the water

Its ripples and rings

Your only daughter

Can't hear the call

I wish we were singing 

Like when I was small

 

Funny what we 

Come up to say

Pleasantries

Forgotten birthdays

I want to take 

All the pain away

I’ll play any song

You want me to play

 

(Instrumental)

 

I will stay all night with you

I will stay all night with you

Never had a prayer but oh God now I do

Praying that he’ll stay the night with you too

 

Just like the light of the day

Will come through your window

I’m by your side day after day

I will never go

Now the songbird knows when to sing

Sing for the one who gave you everything

 

I will stay all night with you

I will stay all night with you

Never had a prayer but oh God now I do

Praying that he’ll stay the night with you too

​

I will stay all night with you

I will stay all night with you

Never had a prayer but oh God now I do

Praying that he’ll stay the night with you too

Praying that he’ll stay the night with you too

Praying that he’ll stay the night

Praying that he’ll stay the night
