The Little Brown Sparrow And Me

The Little Brown Sparrow And Me

(Album: Wilderness - 1976)

One green April morning, when I was a young boy
I lay by the window, a-watching the rain
And I wondered if ever the sun would come shining
So I could go somewhere to play

Then down from the sky flew a little brown sparrow
And he lit on the branch of an old willow tree
And he sit there, watching, as I lay wond'ring
Just the little brown sparrow and me

On a green April morning, when I was a young boy
And little brown sparrows were free

Then he looked in my window and he spied his reflection
There was the willow, there was the sky
And he wondered if ever the sun would come shining
And which was the way for the sparrow to fly

Well, he spread out his wings and he flew to the window
Fast as the wind, sure as could be
But the sky in the window was only a wishing
For the little brown sparrow and me

On a green April morning, when I was a young boy
And little brown sparrows were free

So there by the window, the sparrow had fallen
He died on the ground in the cold April rain
And I wondered if ever the sun would come shining
And someone could only explain

Then I laid there and saw the wind blow through the willow
And cover him over with yesterday's leaves
And there in the rain, I cried for a sparrow
For a little brown sparrow and me

On a green April morning, when I was a young boy
And little brown sparrows were free
On a green April morning, when life was a window
For a little brown sparrow and me
