The Irish Rovers
Don’t Fly Away
That's a touching song you sing
'Bout the bird with a broken wing
And how the young boy takes her in
Until she's well enough to fly again
And when it's time for her to go
You hare the you boy say
Chorus:
Don't fly away pretty bird and leave me crying over you
Leaving me wondering why
Why you could never understand
The way I love you like I do
But i cannot fly and I wish you'd stay
That's a touching irony
In that song for you and me
'Case I love you totally
But you keep saying that you've gotta be free
And now it's time for you to go
Listen to me say
Repeat Chorus
If I Could only change your wild and wandering ways
But I've done everything I can
So one last time now hear me say
Repeat Chorus
