Flying over me
Do you see something I cannot see?
Can you see the breeze above you
And the whisp'ring western winds...
Can you feel the love in the clouds?
Oh I wish I could with you,
White bellied bird.
Do you chuckle at
The same things that we all do?
Can you watch a tear fall from your little eyes
As the egg below you cracks...
Do you scream up at the sky?
I do, I wish you could too,
White bellied bird.
As the waters rush
In and out
Do you notice the sand below?
Or do you only see the blue skies
Above you...
The ocean goes in and out just the same,
White bellied bird.
Does a tear drop fall from your little eyes
As a gunshot cracks from below
White bellied bird?
