| It’s been a long and lonely winter night
|
| When dawn creeps over the mountain
|
| The dusty city is still asleep
|
| I take a bath in a fountain
|
| A yellow bird comes down to me
|
| And asks for bread and butter
|
| So sorry, dear, but I can’t help you
|
| Look for breakfast in the gutter
|
| Sing me a song (sing me a song)
|
| While we’re flying in the sky (sky)
|
| Passing the day (hey)
|
| It won’t take long (won't take long)
|
| And you’ll find me joining in your song (in your song)
|
| But take me away
|
| Sing me a song (sing me a song)
|
| While we’re flying in the sky (sky)
|
| Passing the day, hey (hey)
|
| It won’t take long (won't take long)
|
| And you’ll find me joining in your song
|
| (Take me away)
|
| It’s been a long day
|
| When the darkness covered the ground
|
| I’m wandering through a forest all alone
|
| And stop as I hear the sound
|
| A girl in yellow has caught my view
|
| And begs me to hold her hand
|
| Don’t worry dear, when the morning comes
|
| I will try to make you understand
|
| Sing me a song (sing me a song)
|
| While you’re flying in the sky (sky)
|
| We’re passing the day (hey)
|
| It won’t take long (won't take long)
|
| And you’ll find me joining in your song (in your song)
|
| But take me away
|
| Sing me a song (sing me a song)
|
| While we’re flying in the sky (sky)
|
| We’re passing the day, hey (hey)
|
| It won’t take long (won't take long)
|
| And you’ll find me joining in your song
|
| (Take me away)
|
| Sing me a song (sing me a song)
|
| While we’re flying in the sky (sky)
|
| And we’re passing the day (hey)
|
| It won’t take long (won't take long)
|
| And you’ll find me joining in your song (in your song)
|
| But please take me away
|
| Sing me a song (sing me a song)
|
| While we’re flying in the sky (sky)
|
| We’re passing the day (hey)
|
| It won’t take long (won't take long)
|
| And you’ll find me joining in your song (in your song)
|
| But please take me away
|
| Sing me a song…
|
| (fade out) |
