[Chorus 1]
Oh, you little sparrows on a swaying branch
Singing to the cars up on the overpass
When you fly away from here
Take me with you when you go

[Verse]
A herd of antelope
A sea of redwood trees
Schools of shining fish
And a thousand buzzing bees

[Chorus 2]
Over winter parking lots, the passing geese
Rising in the air, little dandelion seeds
When you fly away from here
Please don’t leave me when you go

[Verse 2]
If I were Jonah
Tossed into the raging sea
I would not fear the whale
That came to swallow me

[Chorus 3]
Oh, you paper cups rolling down the windy street
Oh, you little ants winding through the tangled weeds
Where you’re going I don’t care
Take me with you when you go
