LYRIC FOR SALE

By Rebecca A Fronzaglio aka Rebecca Rhymes

Gone in a flash
Dreams turned to ash
Taken too soon
That cold afternoon
Not even a call
Not even goodbye
I'm still a mess
I won't deny

Red bird is there
Up in the tree
Five times this week
It's looking at me
Red feathers on white
In snow blinding light
Sang me a song
Then vanished from sight

Was it you?
Is it true?
That the red bird will visit
When we are blue?
I don't know
What to think
I don't know
What to do
But, it did give me comfort
To think it was you
Checking on me
Saying hello
Sure would be nice
If I could know

Once in a while
Just now n then
A memory of you
Sneaks in again
My heart melts from pain
The sun turns to rain
I fight back the tears
So hard to contain


Red bird is there
Up in the tree
Five times this week
It's looking at me
Red feathers on white
In snow blinding light
Sang me a song
Then vanished from sight

Was it you?
Is it true?
That the red bird will visit
When we are blue?
I don't know
What to think
I don't know
What to do
But, it did give me comfort
To think it was you
Checking on me
Saying hello
Sure would be nice
If I could know

I'm missing you
Can't help it, it's true
My soul turned to gray
The sun can't break through
Nothing to say
There's nothing new
Not a desire
I care to pursue

Red bird is there
Up in the tree
Five times this week
It's looking at me
Red feathers on white
In snow blinding light
Sang me a song
Then vanished from sight

Was it you?
Is it true?
That the red bird will visit
When we are blue?
I don't know
What to think
I don't know
What to do
But, it did give me comfort
To think it was you
Checking on me
Saying hello
Sure would be nice
If I could know

I walk away
Scratching my head
Another long day
I head for the bed
Turn down the light
You're nowhere in sight
Another day gone
Another day through
Can't wait for the day
That I'm home with you
And the red bird can tell me
If it was true
That you stopped by
'Cause you're missing me too
