Songbirds

(album: Rendezvous In Rio - 2006)

Life read the grooves and your voice
Across the years time travels
Disappeared songbird I hear
You and my heart unravels

When I consider
Your absence then my smile erases
Sure the Creator creates
But rarely He replaces
Songbirds as perfect as you
Songbird it's true

Neighbors in Woodstock
You played us Perry Como's cover
Of "Just When I Needed You Most"
Trophies aride as treasures

When I consider
Your absence then my smile erases
Sure the Creator creates
But rarely He replaces
Songbirds as perfect as you
Songbird it's true

Meadowlark's oriole
Blackbirds and vireos
Warblers in stereo
All

It always saddens me
Yielding to gravity
When even one
Sparrow falls

What Divine Musician tunes
The heartbeat of each songbird
If depression deepens blue
I listen to their songs

What Divine Musician tunes
The heartbeat of each songbird
If depression deepens blue
I listen to their songs

Though we can't explain why
Time conspires to still too soon some songbirds
Time can never tame the
Heart and gem-like beauty of each song

Though we can't explain why
Time conspires to still too soon some songbirds
Time can never tame the
Heart and gem-like beauty of each song
