You're just a bird
So fragile and frail
Afraid to fly
Afraid to fail

You're just a bird
Still safe in your nest
With feathers just forming,
Strong heart in your chest

And one day you'll fly
And spread your own wings
Into the clear sky
And over the seas
But you're just a bird
Who'll soon forget me
But always remember
When we shared a tree

You're just a bird
Who sings as he sways
His own little tune
Even as his heart breaks

You're just a bird
So un-self aware
Still learning to love
To consciously care

And one day you'll fly
And spread your own wings
Into the clear sky
And over the seas
But you're just a bird
Who'll soon forget me
But always remember
When we shared a tree

Oh the places God will have you go
And oh the heart that God will help you grow

But

You're just a bird
And wherever you roam
Think of me fondly,
And the tree,
That we
Called

Home.
