Little Sparrow

(album: Michael Franks - 1973)

Little Sparrow, here you are in my hand
Why so shy at love? I'm only a man
I can feel you trembling
You're flying with a broken wing
And you're all alone

Sparrow, don't you be afraid
Your winter has been delayed
And I will be your home

Little Sparrow, love's a good place to hide
Life's a road, we'll climb on my pony and ride
When I hold your body next to mine
Your heart beats a crazy rhyme
And I listen to it drum

Sparrow, don't you be afraid
Your winter has been delayed
And I will be your home

La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
La la la la la la la la la la la
