From: "Lights on Barkhouse"
The Bird Has Flown
I always gave her respect
I always gave her her own space
I showed her all of my friends
I kissed the hurt from her face
I took her in and treat her well
We lived upon what I could sell
I brushed her crazy hair each day
I gave her my ring but
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
I'm all alone: the bird has flown the coop
I taught her happiness is fun
She'd never have coped without me
I listened when she was mad
I bathed her daily in belief
The very food we'd sit and eat
The chair on which she took a seat
I'd wash her knife and fork and spoon
I'd wipe her face but
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
I'm all alone: the bird has flown the coop
I showed her all of my friends
She came and went as she pleased
I gave her money to spend
I showed her she was believed
Perhaps I treat her too well
Too many nice things that I said
I gave her too much time alone
I gave her my trust but
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
The bird has flown
I'm all alone: The bird has flown the coop
