Little Bird of Heaven Lyrics
I let out from your back door
Kicked an old can fifty miles or more
Written right there on the side of the can
"There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand"
I looked up and I looked back
Walked a hundred miles on the railroad track
All's I can tell from where I stand
There's a little bird of heaven right here in my hand
Well love they tell me is a fragile thing
Its hard to fly on broken wings
I lost my ticket to the promised land
Little bird of heaven right here in my hand
So toss it up or pass it round
Pay no mind to what you're carryin' round
Or keep it close, hold it while you can
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand
Fallen hearts and fallen leaves
Starlings light on the broken trees
I find we all need a place to land
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand
Kicked an old can fifty miles or more
Written right there on the side of the can
"There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand"
Walked a hundred miles on the railroad track
All's I can tell from where I stand
There's a little bird of heaven right here in my hand
Its hard to fly on broken wings
I lost my ticket to the promised land
Little bird of heaven right here in my hand
Pay no mind to what you're carryin' round
Or keep it close, hold it while you can
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand
Starlings light on the broken trees
I find we all need a place to land
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand
