Pretty Bird

Fly away you little pretty bird Fly fly away Fly away little pretty bird And pretty you'll always stay I see in your eyes a promise Your own tender love you'd bring But fly away little pretty bird Cold runneth the spring Loves own tender flames warm this meeting And love's tender songs you'd sing But fly away little pretty bird And pretty you'll always stay I cannot make you no promises For love is such a delicate thing But fly away little pretty bird For he'd only clip your wings Fly fly away you little pretty bird Fly fly away Fly away little pretty bird And pretty you'll always stay Fly far beyond the dark mountain To where you'd be free evermore Fly away little pretty bird Where the cold winter winds don't blow
