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
