If the song of the songbird

Could replace my wrong word

Then my dear, that's the song I would borrow

CHORUS:

& tonight you would hear

The saddest song of the year

& you'd be mine once again come tomorrow

If the song of the swallow

Could reveal my sorrow

Then my dear, he would sing just for you

(chorus)

Just tonight, while in flight

On your windowsill daylight

To tell you all of my tears

(chorus)

(repeat verse 2)

(chorus twice)

Sing, sing, sing, sing, sing, Mr. Songbird

Come on & sing just one, little swallow

& make her mine once again come tomorrow
