Little birdie, little birdie Won't you sing to me your song? Got a short time to stay here And a long time to be gone Little birdie, little birdie Why do you fly so high? Well, it's just there, my dear lovers Up there waiting in the sky ♪ Little birdie, little birdie What makes your wing so blue? Well, it's just there, that all grieving That all grieving over you, oh ♪ I'd rather be in this old darkness Where the sun refuse to shine Than to see you with another And to know you'll never be mine ♪ We'll fly down now Little birdie, won't you sing to me your song? Gotta sing now while we're together I won't hear you when I'm gone, oh
