| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Whoo whoo whoo
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| And the days go by Like a strand in the wind
|
| In the web that is my own
|
| I begin again
|
| Said to my friend, baby
|
| Nothin' else mattered
|
| He was no more than a baby then
|
| Well he seemed broken hearted
|
| Something within him
|
| But the moment that I first laid
|
| Eyes on him all alone
|
| On the edge of seventeen
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Said Ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| Well I went today maybe I will go again
|
| Tomorrow
|
| Yea yea well the music there well it was hauntingly
|
| Familiar
|
| Well I see you doing
|
| What I try to do for me With the words from a poet
|
| And a voice from a choir
|
| And a melody nothing else mattered
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| The clouds never expect it When it rains
|
| But the sea changes color
|
| But the sea
|
| Does not change
|
| And so with the slow graceful flow
|
| Of age
|
| I went forth with an age old
|
| Desire to please
|
| On the edge of seventeen
|
| Oooooooooaaaaaaaaaahhhhhh.
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| Well then suddenly
|
| There was no one left standing
|
| In the hall yeah yeah
|
| In a flood of tears
|
| That no one really ever heard fall at all
|
| Well I went searchin' for an answer
|
| Up the stairs and down the hall
|
| Not to find an answer
|
| Just to hear the call
|
| Of a nightbird singing
|
| Come away
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Ooo baby ooo said ooo
|
| Well I hear you in the morning
|
| And I hear you
|
| At nightfall
|
| Sometimes to be near you
|
| Is to be unable to hear you
|
| My love
|
| I’m a few years older than you
|
| My love
|
| Just like the white winged dove
|
| Sings a song
|
| Sounds like she’s singing
|
| Ooo baby ooo said ooo |
