Babybird

Come back babybird

With your dirty wings in tatters

Come home where you belong

Nobody knows you better

Now bring back your velvet heart

And we'll make you brand new feathers

Sleep through the morning light

With your arms around your brother

Babybird

come back home

Babybird

you were never really on your own

Now outside faces cry

With the tears of lonesome orphans

And behind every mask

is the face of another

Wherever you have been

wherever you took cover

No arms that pulled you in

could hold you like your mother

Babybird

come back home

Babybird

you were never really on your own

When all my colors fade

And my wings, they've turned to leather

I'll know the reasons why

God let me get older

When all my days are through

And I fly these hills no longer

I'll lay beneath the stars

And I'll watch you flying over

Babybird

come back home

Babybird

you were never really on your own

Babybird

come back home

Babybird

you will never be all alone
