Songs of the Lynx

Early Hours

Silent sparrow sings

In the morning without wings

She's been taken down

And so has her crown

One might think the mornings are safe

In the darkness of the night

She can hide but the morning reveals everything

So I said "Bird, don't be scared to fly away"

C:

Fly, like you do every winter

But come back when the spring is drawing closer

Fly, like your mama taught you to

It's not easy being a bird with such light feathers

The flowers have started to bloom

And still, there's no sign of you

Oh, the sound of freedom sighs

Will you return one more time?

The spring feels so empty without you

Am I waiting for nothing?

Where's the joy you used to bring?

C:

Fly, like you do every winter

But come back when the spring is drawing closer

Fly, like your mama taught you to

It's not easy being a bird with such light feathers

Bridge:

It won't take that long for you to come back home

I'll be waiting for you

The time is running out but I have no doubt

You'll come back and bring with you the spring

C:

Fly, like you do every winter

But come back when the spring is drawing closer

Now you fly like your mama taught you to

It is easy being a bird with such strong feathers
