Little Bird Lyrics - Emmylou Harris

If I had a bird, a little bird, 

I would teach that bird to sing your name 

Prettiest song that you've ever heard 

And your indifferent heart I will claim 

So be off my little bird 

Fly away, fly away 

And when my love you see 

Only then my little bird 

Cry away, cry away 

And bring that heart to me 

If I had a moon in the sky 

I would light the world and pull the tide 

And when the moon is full like my heart 

It will surely pull you to my side 

But in the darkest night 

I pine away, pine away 

Until your face I see 

So throw your light my lovely moon 

Shine away, shine away, 

And pull his heart to me 

If I had a wagon made of gold 

Pretty painted horses numbered four 

With a silver harness I would hitch them up 

And drive that wagon to your door 

And if my hand you choose to hold 

Ride away, ride away 

On the pretty horses four 

But darlin' if your heart's still cold 

Hide away, hide away, 

I'll trouble you no more 

Trouble you no more 

Trouble you no more
