You were my May hummingbird
and how fast you flew amazed me.
When I fell in love with you,
I always thought you’d stay.

Then the weather became much colder
and how fast you flew amazed me.
The last time that I saw you,
I begged you not to leave.

He became my December cardinal
and how bright he was amazed me.
When I started to fall for him,
I feared that he would flee.

Then the seasons changed again,
and how he stayed amazed me.
I found I was in love with him
when I went to set him free.

He was my December cardinal,
who stayed all the way to May.
And though he never flew as fast as you,
he never flew away.
