|
On a highway along the Atlantic |
|
I'm rifling through these last seventeen years |
|
The radio waxes romantic |
|
It's lullabies fill our eyes with tears |
|
We don't say a word |
|
There's nothing to say that hasn't been heard |
|
And how you've grown my little bird |
|
I'm regretting letting you fly |
|
Six pounds and seven ounces |
|
A ball of bones and flesh and tears were you |
|
Now your hands, your tiny pink hands |
|
Grew larger than my hands ever grew |
|
We don't say a word |
|
There's nothing to say that hasn't been heard |
|
And how you've, how you've grown my little bird |
|
I'm regretting letting you fly |
|
I'm regretting letting you fly |
|
I'm regretting letting you fly |
|
On a highway, on a highway |
