Someone told me long ago you have to loveAnd let it show, but where is love when you need it?Don't waste my time with stupid wordsSinging songs full of birds, but where are you?When in need, just let's go back to the dayWhen you told me you loved meSinging songs like a couple of birdsLet's go back to the day when you told me you loved meSinging songs like a couple of birdsNow that I've got love to giveI hope that I can finally liveBut only if you can tooWe've got so much left to doYou love me and I love youBut peace, my love, let's not forget itLet's go back to the day when you told me you loved meSinging songs like a couple of birdsLet's go back to the day when you told me you loved meSinging songs like a couple of birdsOnce you told me let's goHere's our chance, we're good as goldBut I know that you meant itFront porch rocking, here we comeBack and forth, love songs for homeBut always know that I mean itLet's go back to the day when you told me you loved meSinging songs like a couple of birdsLet's go back to the day when you told me you loved meSinging songs like a couple of birdsSinging songs like a couple of birds
