Precious Birdy

A song I wrote during a time a dear friend of mine was pulling away.

Chours 

Close your eyes 

precious birdy

the night is late and almost dawn.

Your feathers have healed 

they shimmer brightly

you'll fly away soon 

and i'll be gone

Verse 

Broken wings 

mend so slowly

i wish i knew how to fly 

come, rest. 

Find peace so easy 

for i know what it's like

to break and cry 

  Verse 

Broken hearts 

mend so nicely 

love has a way 

of healing your soul.

It's nice to see 

you healthy and smiling

it's a sign you'll soon fly home. 

Chorus

So close your eyes

precious birdy

the night is late and almost dawn.

Your feathers have healed 

they shimmer brightly 

you'll fly away soon 

and i'll be gone

A lovely song.. even the letters sing loud and clear, their lyrics telling a delightful tale. A tale with honest meanings not merely for birds, creatures- but the two legged stragglers who merely walk the walk.

Perhaps someone will put your words to a musician/composer"

Such kind words. Thanks a bunch.

I love this...I have nursed a bird with broken wing back to health and a couple of women who had broken hearts back to health...they fly way eventually...I am still here.
Nicely done,
j.

Thank you!

Your lyrics are beautiful. Maybe your friend needed you most when they were at their weakest? That pulling away can hurt. It will soften.
