Emmaretta / The Bird Has Flown

Emmaretta Did you get my letter I sent it to you Oh, Emmaretta Do you still feel When night is falling Something's calling Oh, Emmaretta Behind my thoughts Oh, Emmaretta I can get to you To feel better I must go now Oh, Emmaretta Full moon's rising Oh, Emmaretta Oh, it's a thousand miles Oh, and I need you, child Oh, they can drive me wild What I feel and make it real

Oh, the beggar on his cornerstone Catches pity in his wrinkled hand But the lover whose bird has flown Catches nothing, only grains of sand All the children in the distant house They have feelings only children know But the lover whose bird has flown Catches nothing, only flakes of snow (Hey) The sensation is not new to you It's something we all have known You get it, it goes right through you Yes, it's something we all have known And the bird, it has flown To a place on it's own Somewhere all alone Hey! Now, the hermit in his lonely cave Has himself to keep him company But the lover whose bird has flown He has heartaches, same as you and me (Sensation) The sensation is not new to you It's something we all have known You get it, it goes right through you Yes, it's something we all have known And the bird, it has flown Now, the hermit in his lonely cave Has himself to keep him company But the lover whose bird has flown He has heartaches, same as you and me Oh it's started snowing Yes, it started snowing
