Dawn McCarthy & Bonnie ‘Prince’ Billy - What the Brothers Sang

My Little Yellow Bird

I let it get away
I didn't mean to
It just up and flew away
I watched it, what a way to learn
And now I wait for its return

My little yellow bird
I used to hold it in the palm of my hand
Now I'm lonely, I am
I couldn't keep it and I love it
My little yellow bird

Blue, blue sky
I search it every day
Blue, blue sky
I looked for her
But she has gone away

My little yellow bird
I used to hold her in the palm of my hand
Now I'm a very lonely man
I couldn't keep her and I love her

My little yellow bird
My little yellow bird
