Little bird

Hoppin' on my porch.
I know it sounds kinda' sad
But what's it all for?
Right now you're the only friend
I have in the world,
And I just can't take how very much,
Goddamn,
I miss that girl...

Little bird,
You look all right.
I'm sure it's not easy
Gettin' through your night.
So tell me, this can't be how it's gonna end
Tell me, my heart
Somehow,
Dear God,
Is gonna mend.

Little bird,
I guess you're right.
Can't let her take me out
Without a fight.
But right now I can't see making sense of this world.
I just can't take how very much,
Goddamn,
I miss that girl.
