Minutes seem like hours |
|
And hours they seem like days |
|
When the ones you want are missing |
|
And they've gone their separate ways |
|
Walking in a sunny garden empty like the moon |
|
And birds that once could fly so high |
|
Now sings a different tune |
|
Walking in the park |
|
The leaves are turning now it's fall |
|
The time has come for leaving |
|
in their eyes that says it all |
|
Pictures on the mantle |
|
Tell the tales of better times |
|
Moments from a long long time ago |
|
When things were fine |
|
One fine day |
|
When the wild birds return |
|
We'll look back and say |
|
What a lesson in life I learned |
|
So light a broad wick candle |
|
In the window make it bright |
|
You need to find your way home |
|
in the dark deepest night |
|
And if you're lost and homeless |
|
On a lonely city night |
|
Just follow back that winding road |
|
That leads you to the light |
|
One fine day |
|
When the wild birds return |
|
We'll look back and say |
|
What a lesson in life I learned |
|
Minutes seem like hours |
|
And hours they seem like days |
|
When the ones you want are missing |
|
And they've gone their separate ways |
|
Walking in a sunny garden empty like the moon |
|
And birds that once could fly so high |
|
Now sings a different tune |
|
One fine day |
|
When the wild birds return |
|
We'll look back and say |
|
What a lesson in life I learned |
|
One fine day |
|
When the wild birds return |
|
We'll look back and say |
|
What a lesson in life I learned |
|
One fine day |
|
When the wild birds return |
|
We'll look back and say |
|
What a lesson in life I learned |
