Time's been having its way with me
Lost in dreams lately
You were just a kid when I first saw you
Wings of white coming soon
In the light of the moon
Nothing we said was ever spoken
The sleeping words never were awoken
Buried under needles in the changing times
I sent my dreams into the timber
Behind the house, I still remember
Little bird from the woods
Where my best stand stood
I will not forget
Don't give up on me yet
Walking through the dark with a line in my head
I can't tell you what it means
Out on a limb, we sing to the empty night
Nothing more than to live our dreams
Little bird from the woods
Where my best stand stood
I will not forget
Don't give up on me yet
I'm still singing the song
But I don't know how long
I can be this free
Time's catching up on me...
