If I Were A Bird

If I were a bird And I could fly through time
I would not leave behind this sorrow
‘cause I would lose the sweet things
and no matter what the day brings
I would not trade it in for tomorrow

If there was a way to make it all right now
I would not leave behind this sorrow
The gold and the grey, the colors of the day
I would not trade it in for tomorrow

The motherless child the wandering stranger
ride round the corner and right into danger
all the ways that today might fall thru
But I would not fly away from one moment with you

Here in the station
where we meet and we part
happiness rolls in and carries off my heart
the best we can do is try to choose the right track
some trains roll in and they don’t come back
