0:34The way I feel is like a robin
0:41Whose babes have flown to come no more
0:49Like a tall oak tree alone and crying
0:56When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
1:04Now a woman lord is like a young bird
1:12And the tall oak tree is a young man's heart
1:20Among it's boughs you find her nesting
1:27When the nights are cool she's warm and dry
1:35Your coat of green it will protect her
1:43Her wings will grow your love will too
1:50But all too soon your mighty branches
1:58Will cease to hold her and she'll fly from you
2:40Now the way I feel is like a robin
2:48Whose babes have flown to come no more
2:56Like a tall oak tree alone and crying
3:03When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
3:11When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
The way I feel is like a robin Whose babes have flown to come no more Like a tall oak tree alone and crying When the birds have flown and the nest is bare Now a woman lord is like a young bird And the tall oak tree is a young man's heart Among it's boughs you find her nesting When the nights are cool she's warm and dry Your coat of green it will protect her Her wings will grow your love will too But all too soon your mighty branches Will cease to hold her and she'll fly from you Now the way I feel is like a robin Whose babes have flown to come no more Like a tall oak tree alone and crying When the birds have flown and the nest is bare When the birds have flown and the nest is bare
