Lyrics

Blue moon bird
Blue moon bird
Blue moon bird
Moon bird
Moon bird
Moon bird

He stays forever young
Away in the big unknown
Reaching after him
I can’t catch
Can’t catch a blue moon bird

Now he’s back
In the moonlight
Like a promise on silver wings
I know he loves me so
At the turn of the clock
When the sun comes up
I can’t catch
Can’t catch a blue moon bird

How can I learn to fly
In gardens of green and blue
How do I learn to fly
Who do I turn to
How can anybody know you

Until the hands of time give in
I reflect upon what might have been

Lilies and columbines
Whispering to my blue moon bird

Beautiful bird
You're too, too damn swiftly flown away
My blue moon bird
Beautiful bird
Too swiftly, too swiftly flown away
My blue moon bird
Beautiful
Too damn swiftly flown away
My blue moon bird
