abby lyons - mourning doves lyrics
[verse 1]
mourning doves are building nests by my window
they’re chirping in their hideaway, safe from the rain
and i watch
through the door
safe inside
wondering why
why we can’t be friends with little birds
but then i remember
[chorus]
that soon they will be flying away
soon they will pack up their things and go
once the babies learn to fly
they’ll take their dreams into the sky
i would hate to be left behind
[verse 2]
the baby birds are growing up, doing things for themselvеs
and then there’s mе, always trying to be somewhere else
little birds
would you mind
if i come too?
or maybe next time?
oh, if only i could be that brave
i don’t think i’d be here
[chorus]
soon they will be flying away
soon they will pack up their things and go
once the babies learn to fly
they’ll take their dreams into the sky
i would hate to be left behind
[bridge]
but what you didn’t know is
i’ve already got a place where i can go
it’s so far away and
i’m a little afraid of finally letting go
[chorus]
‘cause soon i will be flying away
soon i will pack up my things and go
once the babies learn to fly
and spring begins to light the sky
we’ll all take our dreams and learn to fly
i’m a little sad to say goodbye
