Lyrics

[Verse 1]

Ah, ah, ha, yeah, oh yeah

[Verse 2]

Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune, oh

Yesterday I was half the man I'd used to be

Maybe that's because you're the other half of me

Like the spring in bloom, the summer of our love is soon

Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune

[Verse 3]

Send them from above, unconditionally love

Likened to a flower, stronger, love grows by the hour

Stormy weather days make us go our separate ways

Where our love was so at ease, now you got me down on my knees, hey

[Verse 4]

Yesterday I was brighter than the mornin' sun

Now my love is lost and lonely days have just begun

A solitary chair for a silent love affair

A king has lost his throne, now he sits alone, hey, hey, yeah

[Verse 5]

Oh, oh, yeah

Every bird will sing, hey

Lord, now every bird will sing

Every bird will sing the, sing the melody of our love tune, oh

Every bird, every bird, every bird will sing the melody of our love tune

Hey, I wanna tell you, oh, why

[Verse 6]

Yesterday I was half the man I'd used to be

Oh, maybe that's because you're the other half of me

Like the spring in bloom, the summer of our love is soon, now

Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune

[Verse 7]

Ah, yeah, ooh, every bird will sing a melody

A melody, yet, I tell you, darlin'

Yesterday I was half the man I'd used to be

Maybe that's because you're the other half of me

Like the spring in bloom, the summer of our love is soon

[Verse 8]

Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune

Every bird, every bird will sing the melody of our love tune

Every bird, every bird, every bird will sing the melody of our love tune

Every bird will sing the melody of our love tune
