Little Bird Songtext
von Steve Earle & the Dukes

Little bird come sat upon my window sill
Trapped there through the pourin′ rain
And as I watched that bird upon my window sill
I saw my thoughts of you go by again

I remember how we talked before we said goodbye
Too young to know this world outside our door
How we laughed and said our love was free like birds that fly the winds
And rainy day made me think of you once more


A picture of my face
Up on the window pane
Is that tears I see, or is it rain?

I have no regrets about the past, I see how young we were
When our world was love and life was but a thought
Yeah, many things go many ways and many times but once
Well, our lives have passed and love is but a thought

So as the thoughts go tumblin' back, I wonder how you look
I wonder if you′ve seen that little bird
I wonder if he's sat upon your window sill
And I wonder if you'll ever hear these words


A picture of my face
Up on the window pane
Is that tears I see, or is it rain?
