Lyrics
If the bird and the fish could fall in love
Where will they build their nest
Tell me where will they build their nest
In a six floor walk up hideaway
Down near Washington Heights
Or the shores of Lake Superior
By the glow of the northern lights
Tell me where will they build their nest
Oh where will the build their nest
If the bird and the fish could fall in love
Where will they have their young
Tell me where will
they have their young
In the home of the brave,
land of the free
Out by a frozen lake
Or the mangled roots of a Baobab tree
Is that what it’s going to take
Tell me where will
they have their young
Oh where will they have their young
They’ll build a nest if that’s the plan
The way its been since time began
The only way that’s known to man
With Love, love, love
Sweet Love, love, love
If the bird and the fish could fall in love
How will they make it work
Tell me how will they make it work
Will the make it work
in their own sweet way
Doing the best they can
Or in some secret rendezvous
In a far-off distant land
Tell me how will they make it work
Oh how will they make it work
Tell me where will they build their nest
Oh where will they build their nest
