Lyrics

0:10Beneath it's snowy mantle cold and clean
0:15The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green
0:20The snowbird sings the song he always sings
0:25And speaks to me of flowers
0:27That will bloom again in spring
0:31When I was young
0:32My heart was young then too
0:35Anything that it would tell me
0:37That's the thing that I would do
0:41But now I feel such emptiness within
0:45For the thing that I want most in life's
0:48The thing that I can't win
0:52Spread your tiny wings and fly away
0:56And take the snow back with you
0:58Where it came from on that day
1:02What I love forever is untrue
1:06And if I could you know
1:08That I would fly away with you
1:12The breeze along the river seems to say
1:17That he'll only break my heart again
1:19Should I decide to stay
1:22So little snowbird
1:23Take me with you when you go
1:27To that land of gentle breezes
1:29Where the peaceful waters flow
1:33Spread your tiny wings and fly away
1:37And take the snow back with you
1:39Where it came from on that day
1:43What I love forever is untrue
1:48And if I could you know that I would fly away with you
1:53Yeah if I could you know that I would fly away with you
Beneath it's snowy mantle cold and clean
The unborn grass lies waiting for its coat to turn to green
The snowbird sings the song he always sings
And speaks to me of flowers
That will bloom again in spring
When I was young
My heart was young then  too
Anything that it would tell me
That's the thing that I would do
But now I feel such emptiness within
For the thing that I want most in life's
The thing that I can't win
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
And take the snow back with you
Where it came from on that day
What I love forever is untrue
And if I could you know
That I would fly away with you
The breeze along the river seems to say
That he'll only break my heart again
Should I decide to stay
So  little snowbird
Take me with you when you go
To that land of gentle breezes
Where the peaceful waters flow
Spread your tiny wings and fly away
And take the snow back with you
Where it came from on that day
What I love forever is untrue
And if I could you know that I would fly away with you
Yeah  if I could you know that I would fly away with you
