The Bluebird of Love

I was tired of the strife
In this thin and wretched life
Searching for a way to soothe my soul
When first I heard the sound
Like a voice from all around
A band of angels singing soft and low

Now I've got sunshine in my mind
I'm smiling all the time
Singing in my heart the whole day long
It's a feeling I can hear
A sound that's ringing clear
The bluebird of love found me in a song

I followed that sweet sound
'Til a kind of peace I found
A knowing without knowing what to say
And then the words came clear
Like a whisper in my ear
A simple melody began to play

I've got sunshine in my mind
I'm smiling all the time
Singing in my heart the whole day long
It's a feeling I can hear
A sound that's ringing clear
The bluebird of love found me in a song

And that's how you'll find me here
You'll find I am sincere
I've only tried to write them as they come
And when you feel they're true
That feeling is for you
When the bluebird finds you too my work is done

And you'll have sunshine in your mind
You'll be smiling all the time
Singing in your heart the whole day long
It's a feeling you can hear
A sound that's ringing clear
The bluebird of love finds you in a song

Yes I've got sunshine in my mind
I'm smiling all the time
Singing in my heart the whole day long
It's a feeling I can hear
A sound that's ringing clear
The bluebird of love found me in a song
The bluebird of love found me in a song
