Bluebird

Alan Jackson · Like Red on a Rose [2006]

I'm lost in the night

The icy wind is howling out your name

And desolation wanes

Like a fog

The fires rolling in

In the wind.



I'm out in the rain

The moon is gone behind the clouds again

And I can't stand to live

Another day

'Cause my bluebird went away.



And I'm locked in this room

With my song

No escape

No way to get away.



And my only connection

with tomorrow

Is hopin' that you might decide

Not to stay away.



Well, I'm out on a limb

If I could only find sweet love again

To live my life this way is too much to bear

Can't find my bluebird anywhere.



I'm out in the rain

The moon is gone behind the clouds again

And I can't stand to live another day

Bluebird why'd you go away?



Bluebird why'd you go away?...
