Jerry Jeff Walker — Little Bird 1968

[Verse 1] Little bird come and sat upon my window sill Sat there thru the fallin' rain As I watched that little bird upon my window sill Saw my thoughts of you go by again [Chorus] And a picture of my face Reflected on the pane Is it tears I see or is it rain? [Verse 2] I remember how we talked before we said goodbye Too young to notice this world outside our door And now the miles of time have built a wall of love Though I try I just can't tear it down [Verse 3] For I said that love takes many shapes, it has no form Has no boundaries, has not grips to hold But time will take the foolish hand [?] pain Make the heart look back with eyes grown cold [Chorus] And the picture of my face Reflected on the pane Is it tears I see or is it rain? [Verse 4] I've no regrets about the past, there's nothing I can change Life's a road you walk just one way down Looking back, I do recall that frame of time When the world was love and time was just a thought [Verse 5] Many things go many ways, your course of life is such We almost picked that road of life to walk And age gives off old memories like handnotes [in love?] Where the world is time and that love is just a thought [Chorus] And the picture of my face Reflected on the pane Is it tears I see or is it rain? [Verse 6] As my thoughts go tumblin' back I wonder how you look I wonder if you've seen that little bird I wonder if he's sat upon your window sill I wonder if you'll ever hear these words [Chorus] And the picture of my face Reflected on the pane Is it tears I see or is it rain?
