fly high little sparrow
with the pretty blue eyes
as high as the sun
that's set in the skies

gracefully soar
in your passionate way
amongst beautiful clouds
that watch over the day

you're free
and you're wild
liberty's child

then comes the winds

fly little sparrow
as fast as you can
hurry and flee
from the ravaging winds

seek out your shelter
from the thunder and rain
hide from the storm
that brings in the pain

back to your cubby
back to your den
never get caught
in the stormclouds again

rest in the emptiness
find comfort alone
behind the cold bars
safe in your home

rest little sparrow
alone in your cage
safe from the chaos
of the storms violent rage

sleep little sparrow
dusk will come soon
then twinkles the stars
then glimmers the moon
