Little bird on the tree you better fly

If you stay on that tree you're gonna die

Little bird of the forest say to me

Why happiness just can never be

Who put their poison in the dart

That hurts my soul and kills my heart

That made my whole life fall apart

? and breaks my heart

And haunts my dreams and breaks my heart

The forest I loved went up in flames

And now the fire has gone to rain

And now the rain has gone to stream

Where's my love, my long lost dream

The ashes flew away

And scattered far away

And where is my love, little bird didn't say

Little bird on the tree you better fly

Little bird of the sky you better fly

If you stay on that tree your gonna die

Little bird get away, take to the skies

Go find a love that never dies

Where is my love, my only soul

That used to laugh and sing along

That used to light up, cheer my life

That used to light up my poor heart

That used to light up all the dark

Where's my path, it was washed away

Where are my tracks, erased by rain

Where's my house, the river claimed

Where's my love, my soul refrained

My love has gone away

And flew and flew astray

And where is my love that the wind took away

Sudden bird came to rest but high it flew

Sudden bird flapped a shot and went the blue (?)

Sudden bird of the forest say to me

Why happiness just can never be

Go ask the Lord, happens above

What ever happened to my love

What ever happened to my love

Go ask the saddest morning dove

What ever happened to my love

The bright morning light was burned by day

The day grew old and spent my day

The sun went down and twilight came

And sudden night was back again

The moon across the sky

Grew dim and hid away

Then it was so cold when the star brought the day

Little bird of the sky you better fly

Little bird of the sky you better fly

You fly, fly, fly, fly
