[Verse 1]
Late at night, a little birdie whispered in my ear
"Why are you still here? Run along home now"
Lullaby, oh something wicked this way come at night
It's time to let you fly
Oh run along home now
And don't look back around
[Verse 2]
Half alive and haunted by a day of quiet alone
You're not coming home, move it on, low down
Pretty eyes, oh how could I have ever watched them go?
It's harder than you'll ever, ever, ever, ever know
Now it's too much to take, so much to take, I have to say goodnight
[Bridge]
Fly, peregrine, I hope your broken wings can carry you home
Fly, peregrine, I hope you will remember me, you said you will
Fly, peregrine, I hope your broken wings can carry you home
Fly, peregrine, I hope you will remember me, you said you will
[Refrain]
Late at night, a little birdie whispered in my ear
Run along home now
Run along run along
Go 'head run along
Run along home now
Why are you still here?
Run along home now
