Leave the bird by the windowsill if she isn't
ready to fly
She'll see the world from a different view
when her wings follow suit to her eyes

Oh fledgling take your time,
there's a world here beneath those skies,
all yours when you feel its time,
close your eyes, and say goodbye

leave the bird by the windowsill if she isn't
ready to fly
She'll take her turn like the others will
find her way, be it day or the night

Oh fledgling take your time,
there's a world here beneath those skies,
all yours when you feel its time,
close your eyes, and say goodbye

See the bird by the windowsill and she's almost
ready to fly
let her go and return she will
when the world brings her down from the skies

Oh fledgling take your time,
there's a world here beneath those skies,
all yours when you feel its time,
close your eyes, and say goodbye
