Came in the world my babygirl, beautiful angel
Oh, I could cry, got your mother's kind eyes
Trying to stop time, no, I could never ask for more
Darling, there's a train coming in your life that you've gotta catch, but that's not right now
Small hands (wrapped around my finger, wrapped around my finger)
And we dance (trying to let it linger, trying to let it linger)

'Cause I know if I'm doing my job correct
Nights like these will happen less
So, please, just keep me in your heart
When you fly into somebody else's arms, Little Bird
Yeah, yeah

Walk down the aisle
Breaking my heart
Lay down my pride
I know I've gotta let you go
'Cause he's gonna love you when I gotta leave you
Gotta believe it when the Lord takes me home
Darling, there's a train coming in your life that you've gotta catch, but that's not right now
Small hands (wrapped around my finger, wrapped around my finger)
And we dance (trying to let it linger, trying to let it linger)

'Cause I know if I'm doing my job correct
Nights like these will happen less
So, please, just keep me in your heart
When you fly into somebody else's arms, Little Bird
Oh, Little Bird, oh, oh
Little bird

So, please, just keep me in your heart
When you fly into somebody else's arms, Little Bird
