Lyrics: A little bird come sit upon my window-sill Sat there thru the falling rain As I watched that bird upon my window-sill Saw my thoughts of you go by again And the picture of my face reflecting on the pane Is it tears I see or is it rain I remember how we talked before we said goodbye Too young to know this world outside our door And now the miles of time have built a wall my love And though I try I just can't tear it down I said that love takes many shapes it has no forms Has no boundaries has no grips to hold But time will take the foolish hand and twist a tinged pain And make the heart look back with eyes grown old And the picture of my face reflecting on the pane Is it tears I see or is it rain I have no regrets about the past there's nothing I can change Life's a road you walk just one way down But looking back I do recall that frame of time When the world was love and time was just a thought Then if things go many ways course of life is such We all must pick that road of life to walk And age gives off old memories like hand notes in a log Where the world is time and love is just a thought And the picture of my face reflecting in the pane Is it tears I see or is it rain As my thoughts go tumbling back I wonder how you look I wonder if you've seen that little bird I wonder if he sat upon your window-sill I wonder if you'll ever hear these words I wonder if you'll ever hear these words I wonder if you'll ever hear these words |
