Wild bird, I have mended your wing Now I'm wondering if my cold white hands can let go Just hold on to your fluttering heart I know you're anxious to make a new start And when you call me from the down winds Rise and fall back to the ground again You belong in the mountains Wild bird Wild bird, you have mended my soul But I still don't know If my songs can sore like your wings But I will sing tonight This hymn to a life and flight And when you call me from the down winds Rise and fall back to the ground again You belong in the mountains Wild bird And when you call me from the down winds Rise and fall back to the ground again You belong in the mountains Wild bird Wild bird Wild bird
