The way I feel is like a robin |
|
whose babes have flown to come no more |
|
like a tall oak tree alone and cryin' |
|
when the birds have flown and the nest is bare |
|
Now a woman Lord is like a young bird |
|
and the tall oak tree is a young man's heart |
|
among his boughs you'll find her nesting |
|
when the nights are cool she's warm and dry |
|
Your coat of green it will protect her |
|
her wings will grow your love will too |
|
But all too soon your mighty branches |
|
will cease to hold her and she'll fly from you |
|
Now the way I feel is like a robin |
|
whose babes have flown to come no more |
|
like a tall oak tree alone and cryin' |
|
when the birds have flown and the nest is bare |
|
when the birds have flown and the nest is bare |
