Songbird

Never, Never, Never had so far to travel Through the dust and the gravel and through the green forest that covers the land. And that is what is always calling me onward Leave you only with fondness and thanks for your kindness as I take both your hands. A beautiful songbird is singing to me So sweet and so bonnie is she that the flowers turn to greet her And if I were to meet you tomorrow for the very first time would you me a true lover of mine? Never, never, never had so much to utter but a spell in the gutter can work on the tongue keep it still in the head We could talk the back legs off all of the horses in all of the stables and I wish I were able and I wish I could stay But a beautiful songbird is singing to me So sweet and so bonnie is she that the flowers turn to greet her And if I were to meet you tomorrow for the very first time would you me a true lover of mine? Never, never, never had so much to offer so why must we suffer and why must it always feel this hard? When the sun is out the grass is greener the sweet pea and camelia the moss and the blossom that maketh your bed. A beautiful songbird is singing to me So sweet and so bonnie is she that the flowers turn to greet her And if I were to meet you tomorrow for the very first time would you me a true lover of mine?
