lyrics

Bird on my shoulder

It’s running through like a bad disease
Through my head down to my feet
My mind is sore and my body it aches
Trying to find the time to just relax

I miss my home I miss my family
I miss the love that they give to me
When I fall into a deep dark hole
They’re the ones who have the rope

When I thought I’d hit the ground
Something turned me upside down
Just when I thought things were gonna get worse
Then along came a little bird

There’s a bird on my shoulder and he’s singing softly to me
Telling me that all these things are not as big as they seem
And to greet each day with love when you wake

My pockets empty, no loose change
That’s nothing new but it’s bugging me today
I wish I could fly like a bird in the wind
I wish I could forget all these things

When I thought I’d hit the ground
Something turned me upside down
Just when I thought things were gonna get worse
Then along came a little bird

There’s a bird on my shoulder and he’s singing softly to me
Telling me that all these things are not as big as they seem
And to greet each day with love when you wake
