If you were a bird and you lived very high Knew even the wind as the breeze came by Say to the wind as it took you away That's where I wanted to go today And I do know that I need to have you around And I do know that I need to have you around Love like a mountain springtime Flashing through the rivers of my mind It's what I feel for you You and me go walking south And we see all the world around us The colors blind my eyes and my mind to all but you And I do know that I need to have you around And I do, I do know that I need to have you around I have a house where I can go When there's too many people around me I can sit and watch all the people Down below goin' by me Halfway down the stair is a stair Where I sit and think about you and me But I wonder will the sun still see all the people goin' Will the moon still hang in the sky when I die When I die, when I'm high, when I die? If you were a cloud and you sailed up there You sail on water as blue as air You'd see me here in the fields and say "Doesn't the sky look green today?"
