Pretty Bird

[Chorus]
Fly away, little pretty bird
Fly, fly away
Fly away, little pretty bird
And pretty, you'll always stay

[Verse 1]
I see in your eyes, a promise
Your own tender love you bring
But fly away, little pretty bird
Cold runneth the spring

[Verse 2]
Love's own tender flames warms this meeting
And loves tender song should sing
But fly away, little pretty bird
And pretty, you'll always stay

[Verse 3]
I cannot make you no promise
Love is such a delicate thing
Fly away, little pretty bird
For he'd only clip your wings

[Chorus]
Fly, fly away, little pretty bird
Fly, fly away
Fly away, little pretty bird
And pretty, you'd always stay

[Verse 4]
Fly far beyond the dark mountain
To where you'll be free evermore
Fly away, little pretty bird
Where the cold winter winds don't blow
