Bluebird

Word came through in a letter

One of us changing our minds

You won't need to guess who since I usually do

Not send letters to me that are mine

I told him I saw this coming

That I'd practically packed up my things

I was glad at the time that I said I was fine

But all honesty knows I wasn't ready, no

And so here we go, bluebird

Back to the sky on your own

Oh, let him go, bluebird

Ready to fly, you and I

Here we go

Here we go

This pair of wing's worn and rusted

From too many years by my side

They can carry me, swear to be sturdy and strong

But see, turning them on still means goodbye

And so here we go, bluebird

Gather your strength and rise up

Oh, let him go, bluebird

Oh, let him go, bluebird

Oh, let him go, bluebird

Ready to fly, you and I

Here we go

Here we go

Here we go
