Bye bye birdie
I guess I gotta let you fly birdie
up up high in the sky
and never look back on me birdie
I let you go remember
took the clips from your wings
and let you grow remember
you don’t remember?
Birdie don’t be silly
of course I love your singing
I loved the way you loved me
even though you never did it right
I loved the way your night song touched me
even though our harmonies weren't all that tight
but now you gotta go out there
find a girl with feathers
not with kinky hair
one that can and will hatch you an egg
one that'll build you all a nest
but that ain’t me
I ain’t got a beak
or the capability
to really make you happy
so fly birdie
fly fly high birdie
up into the sky birdie
and ill stay here
I realize were not the same
and frankly I’m tired of this tiring game
of charades
where I act a fool
which would be fine
if only you could guess the clues
but you never do
so we always loose
because the sand has run out on that tiny little clock
that we never even use
because we can never agree to
so once again my birdie
I wish you bye bye
my hearts too low honey
your homes in the sky
I cant really cry
but the tears flow anyway
and I wave coz I’ve run out of words to say
although I know by now you’re too far up to see any of it either way
