There was a special little part of me
It slipped away on Saturday
The pretty bird let out a cry and flew
It wasn’t forced, It wasn’t sure
But curious and soft, demure,
I gave that little part of me to you.

I cannot count the times I tried
To make her stay, I cannot lie
A white lace gown would surely be ideal
But in your eyes I get so lost
I changed my mind; I paid the cost
You see, it’s just the way you make me feel

I hope you keep my little bird
Close to your heart—a silent word,
A gift, that you will treasure all your days
She cares about you; hear her sing!
And you, you are my everything,
I hope that I will be with you always.
