Song by Stevie Nicks<br /><br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Whoo... whoo... whoo...<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo<br>

<br>

And the days go by...<br>

Like a strand in the wind...<br>

In the web that is my own...<br>

I begin again<br>

Said to my friend, baby...<br>

Nothin' else mattered<br>

<br>

He was no more... than a baby then<br>

Well he... seemed broken hearted...<br>

Something within him<br>

But the moment... that I first laid...<br>

Eyes... on... him... all alone...<br>

On the edge of... seventeen<br>

<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

ooo baby... ooo... said ooo...<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo<br>

<br>

I went today... maybe I will go again...<br>

Tomorrow<br>

And the music there it was hauntingly...<br>

Familiar<br>

And I see you doing...<br>

What I try to do for me<br>

With the words from a poet...<br>

And the voice from a choir<br>

And a melody... nothing else mattered<br>

<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

ooo baby... ooo... said ooo<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo<br>

<br>

The clouds... never expect it...<br>

When it rains<br>

But the sea changes colours...<br>

But the sea...<br>

Does not change<br>

And so... with the slow... graceful flow...<br>

Of age<br>

I went forth... with an age old...<br>

Desire... to please<br>

On the edge of... seventeen<br>

<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo<br>

<br>

Well then suddenly...<br>

There was no one... left standing<br>

In the hall... yeah yeah...<br>

In a flood of tears<br>

That no one really ever heard fall at all<br>

Oh I went searchin' for an answer...<br>

Up the stairs... and down the hall<br>

Not to find an answer...<br>

Just to hear the call<br>

Of a nightbird... singing...<br>

Come away... come away...<br>

<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo... baby ooo... said ooo<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo... baby ooo... said ooo<br>

<br>

Well I hear you in the morning...<br>

And I hear you...<br>

At nightfall...<br>

Sometime to be near you...<br>

Is to be unable... to hear you...<br>

My love...<br>

I'm a few years older than you...<br>

<br>

Just like the white winged dove...<br>

Sings a song...<br>

Sounds like she's singing...<br>

Ooo baby... ooo... said ooo <br>
