Little Bird - Emmylou Harris

If I had a bird, a little bird

I would teach that bird to sing your name

Prettiest song that you have ever heard

And your indifferent heart I will claim

So be off my little bird

Fly away, fly away

And when my love you see

Only then my little bird

Cry away, cry away

And bring that heart to me

If I had a moon in the sky

I would light the world and pull the tide

And when the moon is full like my heart

It will surely pull you to my side

But in the darkest night I pine away

Pine away until your face I see

So throw your light, my lovely moon

Shine away, shine away and pull his heart to me

If l had a wagon made of gold

Pretty painted horses numbered four

With a silver harness I would hitch them up

And drive that wagon to your door

And if my hand you choose to hold

Ride away, ride away with the pretty horses four

But darlin', if you heart’s still cold

Hide away, hide away, I’ll trouble you no more

Trouble you no more
