Little bird fly away
Fly so high so far away
In these arms I've held you tight
But now I learn to set you free
Spread your wings and spread'em wide
For this is a one way flight
Before you leave, before you go
Don't forget to kiss me goodnight
Now little bird, fly away
Fly so high so far away
Little bird don't you cry
When I kiss you goodbye
My broken heart
Will guide your way
And when we're apart
You'll hear me say
Little bird fly away
Fly so high so far away
But when the winter comes
     and the rain falls
Fly home to me
In my arms you'll find your nest
You'll find safety in my sorrow
Lay beside me and rest
For you have to leave me tomorrow
Little bird fly away
Fly so high so far away
In these arms I've held you tight
But now I learn to set you free
