Rain bird, laughing in the olive tree, la la dee dah Collared shirt, with the alabaster altarpiece, you made for me Some are sweet, and some forgiven Your advice is all that seems to matter much to me Call it sweet, call it something paradise Is it the right word you designed for me? Is it the broken work or good advice I need? Is it half as sweet set aside for me? Is it mysterious? Is it something ripe and sweet? Snowbird, your sister said she needed me, la la dee dah Show them first, show them what you did for me, la la dee dah Quiet sound, and little soldier sent beneath And epaulets that covered every shoulder Call it sweet come take Forget the things I said, too please Is it the right word you designed for me? Is it the broken word or good advice I need? Is it the tapestry set beneath my wings? Is it mysterious? Glorious? Indeed Don't stop, don't break You can delight because you have a place Quiet room, I need you now Is it the right word? Is it the broken word? Is it the tapestry? Is it the majesty? Is it the right word? Is it the broken word? Is it the tapestry? Is it the majesty? Don't stop, don't break You can delight because you have a place Quiet room, I need you now
