My mama told me when I was a kid
When a redbird flies, close your eyes, make a wish
Right around the time my faith went missing
Prayin' for an angel, but the wings look different
God, if you're listening, could you send me one down?
'Cause I could use a redbird right now
One from the other side of the clouds
I'm feeling lost and empty
Let me know that you're still with me
By sending someone up in heaven
Down to earth for just a second
I know you know it's all gonna be all right
If it ain't too much, could you just give me a sign?
Red bird, fly
Fly
Fly
This world's so dark it's like all the color's gone
Sometimes I feel like flying on my own
Then I see all I need in a pine tree out of the blue
It reminds me your timing is better than mine, I know it's true
But I could use a red bird right now
One from the other side of the clouds
I'm feeling lost and empty
Let me know you're still with me
By sending someone up in heaven
Down to earth for just a second
I know you know it's all gonna be alright
If it ain't too much, could you just give me a sign?
Red bird, fly
Fly
Fly
Ooh, ooh
