Boz Scaggs - Fly Like a Bird lyrics

There was a howl that night
A howling like they never heard before
A cry so loud old granddad
Almost hit the door he said
"I love this child as much as
Any one that she ever bore
But, I thank the Lord we
Won't be having any more"
Then the baby heard the sweetest
Sound he'd ever heard
In tones so beautiful he hung on every word
She sang, "Hush, my love
Granny's little dove is going to
Take to the sky" it was on such a night he
Learned to fly like a bird
Now the years have passed and
Memories come and go
He hears that voice that rocked him gently so
A calm will descend and there's peace at
The end of the darkest night
Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird
Now the years have passed and
Memories come and go
He hears that voice that rocked him gently so
Well, the rain's gonna fall and the wind
My blow in the darkest night
Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird
A calm will descend and there's peace at
The end of the darkest night
Sometimes I cry, sometimes I fly like a bird
