Mary Chapin Carpenter - I Was A Bird lyrics

rate me

I was a bird that loved to fly

Catching the wind as it went south

And I could touch every inch of sky

And the sweetest songs trilled from my mouth

But I'm no bird anyone can see

And there's no wind waiting for me

It's just a dream, it's just a dream

To be a bird flying free

I was a cloud that loved to drift

Offering shade to lay upon

And the greenest grass was my gift

And a summer day was my song

But I'm no cloud anyone can see

And there's just dust instead of green

It's just a dream, it's just a dream

To be a cloud drifting free

I was a light that loved to dance

Without a care of who might see

I tempted fate and welcomed chance

And I held the world inside of me

The clouds have fled, and the birds have flown

And the light that was is all but gone

It's just a dream, it's just a dream

To be a light

To be a cloud

To be a bird

Flying free
