~~ONE TINY BIRD~~
"Hummingbirds"
flitting, diving, making us smile.
Going from flower to flower
while we wonder all the while.
Where has he been,
What has he done?
Is he really the same one?
The hummingbird has returned.
Now there is no doubt.
Why did I think
the sun wouldn't come out.
Why did I think
there would be no spring?
My sorrow can't stop it,
I still have my dream.
The hummingbird has returned.
That gives me a smile.
I know love will win out,
if I give it a while.
Why did I think
I couldn't still have dreams?
Life is still a wonder,
it's not what it seems.
The hummingbird has returned.
Now I know it is true.
Life really does go on.
No matter what we do.
Now I know that no matter what
I really can cope.
With this yearning heart of mine
that is filled with hope.
The hummingbird has returned.
See him fly to the rose.
Watching him gives me strength,
courage to forget my wows.
It is a tiny rose,
it's petals one of a kind.
Can I now unfold the petals
of this life of mine?
The story of my petals
has never been told.
Will someone out there
please help them unfold?
The hummingbird has returned.
He's going back to the rose.
Is this a sign for me,
someday we will be close?
If you unfold the petals
what's left is my heart.
It's pounding with love
that will never depart.
Dipping then diving,
then flying away.
Why did you think
my love wouldn't stay?
Why did you think
I wouldn't stay around,
wishing our love was
on more solid ground?
The hummingbird has returned
and so has his mate.
There's joy in his flight
only she can create.
I see them together,
there's happiness in their flight.
It makes me believe
someday we can be right.
The hummingbird has returned.
Again it is springtime.
I feel I can win your love
and you will again be mine.
My petals are open.
My heart is exposed.
The past is only a memory.
Its book is now closed.
The hummingbird has returned.
That gives me a smile.
I know love will win out,
if I give it a while.
Why did I think
I couldn't still have dreams?
Love is still a wonder,
it is all that it seems.
