Little Bird

In my life I've been compared

to a little bird I've got to spread my wings

You nested in my bed

And I came alive now I can fly

I was given something real

But I didn't understand how to use it

I danced around my fears

Like my mothers before but I abused it

And mama's dancing in the backyard

She's been asking these question for a long, long time

She's been rolling her chances just to pass it on

Passing it on

Passing it on

Tell me loving mother where are you headed?

'Cause where you been don't bother me

Step away from the darkness and get back to where you ought to be

Through this life you give

There is an answer, all you gotta do is believe

This little bird you've been brooding has gone free

And soon will you be released

Mama's dancing in the backyard

She's been asking these question for a long, long time

She's been rolling her chances just to pass it on

Passing it on

Passing it on

Mama's dancing in the backyard

She's been asking these question for a long, long time

She's been rolling her chances just to pass it on

Passing it on

Passing it on

Passing it on
