Sorrowbird

Sorrowbird
There's a bird that only sings at night
you'll never hear it at any other time
it's such a bittersweet melody
carries through the night air so mournfully
as the soft moon glows
she sings a song that touches the soul
and as I lie in bed listening
I'm haunted by her suffering

listen to the sorrow bird she sings the saddest song you've ever heard there's pain in every note
poor sorrowbird has a broken heart

This little bird tells a familiar story
her anguish rings out beneath a sky so starry
and all who hear it cant help but feel sorry
for a songstress so melancholy
and its such a beautiful composition
sung with so much conviction
her voice full of so much emotion her heart must surly be broken

listen to the sorrow bird she sings the saddest song you've ever heard
there's pain in every note
poor sorrowbird has a broken heart

Sometimes in my dreamy state
I hear her pining for her mate
as I lie in my bed alone
I'm mesmerized by her lonely tone
perhaps I'm imaging
yes I'm just dreaming there's no such thing as a sorrowbird
its just my soul I heard....
