I lived a while without ya, darn near half my life

I no longer see our unborn children, under you, my unwed wife

But yesterday I had a vision, under the tree where we once talked

Of an old couple burnin' their love letters

So that the children won't be shocked

Love calls just like the wild birds

It's another day

Spring wind blew my list of

Things to do away

All my friends are gettin' older, I guess I must be too

Without their lovin' kindness, I, I don't know what I'll do, oh

The wine bottle's half empty, the money's all been spent

And we're a cross between out parents, and hippies in a tent

Love calls just like the wild birds

It's another day

Spring wind blew my list of

Things to do away

In a mucked up lovely river, I cast my little fly

But I look at that river and I smell it, it makes me wanna cry, oh

To clean our dirty planet, now there's a noble wish

But I'm puttin' my shoulder to the wheel

'Cause I wanna catch some fish

Oh, love calls just like the wild birds

It's another day

Spring wind blew my list of

Things to do

Away
