Fly Like A Bird
(Boz Scaggs)

There was a howl that night
a howling like they'd never heard before
A cry so loud
old grandad almost hit the door
He said - I love this child much as any one that she ever bore
But I thank the Lord we won't be having anymore

Then the baby heard
the sweetest sound he'd ever heard
In tones so beautiful he hung on every word
She sang - Hush my love, Granny's little dove is going to
take to the sky -
It was on such a night he learned to fly like a bird

Now the years have passed and memories come and go
He hears that voice that rocket him gently so
A calm will descend and there's peace at the end
of the darkest night
Sometimes I cry sometimes I fly like a bird

Now the years have passed and memories come and go
He hears that voice that rocket him gently so
The rain's gonna fall and the winds may blow
on the darkest night
Sometimes I cry sometimes I fly like a bird

A calm will descend and there's peace at the end
of the darkest night
Sometimes I cry sometimes I fly like a bird
