I lived awhile without you
Darn near half my life
I no longer see our unborn children
Born to you my unwed wife
But yesterday I had a vision
Beneath the tree where we once talked
Of an old couple burning
Their love letters so their children
Won't be shocked
[Chorus:]
Love calls like the wild birds-
It's another day
A Spring wind blew my list of
Things to do...away
All my friends are gettin older
So I guess I must be too
Without their loving kindness
I don't know what I'd do
Oh the wine bottle's half empty-
The money's all spent
And we're a cross between our parents
And hippies in a tent
[Chorus:]
Love calls like the wild birds-
It's another day
A Spring wind blew my list of
Things to do...away
In a mucked up lovely river
I cast my little fly
I look at that river and smell it
And it makes me wanna cry
Oh to clean our dirty planet
Now there's a noble wish
And I'm puttin my shoulder to the wheel
Cause I wanna catch some fish
[Chorus:]
Love calls like the wild birds-
It's another day
A Spring wind blew my list of
Things to do...away
