Fairport Convention - Bring Me Back My Feathers Lyrics

Fairport Convention Lyrics

"Bring Me Back My Feathers"

Bring me back my feathers
Else I cannot fly
Bring me back my feathers
Else I'll surely die
Bring me back my feathers
Let me fly away
To the warm lands over the sea
Bring my feathers back to me

Bring me back my sweetheart
Else I cannot live
Bring me back my sweetheart
Anything I'd give
Bring me back my sweetheart
I'll kiss her wildly
And then I'll take her to my bed
Bring my sweetheart back to me

Bring me back my sweetheart
Bring her back to me
Bring me back my sweetheart
Oh, how happy I will be

Bring me back my tears
Else I cannot cry
Bring me back my tears
For look, I only sigh
Bring back my tears
Or dry my eyes will be
And I will only know of joy
When you bring them back to me

Bring me back my tears
Bring them back to me
Bring me back my tears
Oh, how happy I will be

Bring me back my footsteps
Else I cannot tread
Bring me back my footsteps
Or I may as well be dead
Bring me back my footsteps
Or I never will be free
Never again to walk this land
Bring my footsteps back to me

Bring me back my footsteps
Bring them back to me
Bring me back my footsteps
Oh, how happy I will be

Bring me back my feathers
Else I cannot fly
Bring me back my feathers
Else I'll surely die
Bring me back my feathers
And I can fly away
To the warm lands over the sea
Bring my feathers back to me

Bring me back my feathers
Bring them back to me
Bring me back my feathers
Oh, how happy I will be
