GORDON LIGHTFOOT - The Way I Feel lyrics

rate me

The way I feel is like a robin<br>Whose babes have flown to come no more<br>A tall oak tree alone and cryin'<br>When her birds have flown and the nest is bare<br>Now a woman lord is like a young bird<br>And the tall oak tree is like a young man's heart<br>Among his boughs you will find her nesting<br>When the nights are cool she's warm and dry<br><br>Your coat of green will protect her<br>Her wings will grow your love will too<br>But all too soon your mighty branches<br>Will cease to hold her she'll fly from you<br><br>If I'd wings to fly<br>I'd follow you<br>If you'd wait for me<br>I'd fly away<br>I'd fly away
