It's been a long and lonely winter night When dawn creeps over the mountain The dusty city is still asleep I take a bath in a fountain A yellow bird comes down to me And asks for bread and butter So sorry, dear, but I can't help you Look for breakfast in the gutter Sing me a song (sing me a song) While we're flying in the sky (sky) Passing the day (hey) It won't take long (won't take long) And you'll find me joining in your song (in your song) But take me away Sing me a song (sing me a song) While we're flying in the sky (sky) Passing the day, hey (hey) It won't take long (won't take long) And you'll find me joining in your song (Take me away) It's been a long day When the darkness covered the ground I'm wandering through a forest all alone And stop as I hear the sound A girl in yellow has caught my view And begs me to hold her hand Don't worry dear, when the morning comes I will try to make you understand Sing me a song (sing me a song) While you're flying in the sky (sky) We're passing the day (hey) It won't take long (won't take long) And you'll find me joining in your song (in your song) But take me away Sing me a song (sing me a song) While we're flying in the sky (sky) We're passing the day, hey (hey) It won't take long (won't take long) And you'll find me joining in your song (Take me away) Sing me a song (sing me a song) While we're flying in the sky (sky) And we're passing the day (hey) It won't take long (won't take long) And you'll find me joining in your song (in your song) But please take me away Sing me a song (sing me a song) While we're flying in the sky (sky) We're passing the day (hey) It won't take long (won't take long) And you'll find me joining in your song (in your song) But please take me away Sing me a song...
