Fairport Convention

Bring Me Back My Feathers

Bring me back my feathers

Else I cannot fly

Bring me back my feathers

Else I'll surely die

Bring me back my feathers

Let me fly away

To the warm lands over the sea

Bring my feathers back to me

Bring me back my sweetheart

Else I cannot live

Bring me back my sweetheart

Anything I'd give

Bring me back my sweetheart

I'll kiss her wildly

And then I'll take her to my bed

Bring my sweetheart back to me

Bring me back my sweetheart

Bring her back to me

Bring me back my sweetheart

Oh, how happy I will be

Bring me back my tears

Else I cannot cry

Bring me back my tears

For look, I only sigh

Bring back my tears

Or dry my eyes will be

And I will only know of joy

When you bring them back to me

Bring me back my tears

Bring them back to me

Bring me back my tears

Oh, how happy I will be

Bring me back my footsteps

Else I cannot tread

Bring me back my footsteps

Or I may as well be dead

Bring me back my footsteps

Or I never will be free

Never again to walk this land

Bring my footsteps back to me

Bring me back my footsteps

Bring them back to me

Bring me back my footsteps

Oh, how happy I will be

Bring me back my feathers

Else I cannot fly

Bring me back my feathers

Else I'll surely die

Bring me back my feathers

And I can fly away

To the warm lands over the sea

Bring my feathers back to me

Bring me back my feathers

Bring them back to me

Bring me back my feathers

Oh, how happy I will be
