"Stray Birds" lyrics

"Stray Birds"

Oh I have turned
Oh I have turned
I have heard your heart yearn
And you and I are stray birds

All I have known
All I have known
Into the sky we have flown
And by the sun we will not burn
You and I are stray birds

Promise in the dark
Promise in the dark
We are here near or far
The seeds will fall, the earth be turned
And you and I are stray birds

To the road I'm bound
To the road I'm bound
But love will travel all around
Of nothing are we ever sure
But you and I are stray birds

Feather on a wing
I learn the hard way, I learn to sing
The pleasure of the setting sun
So soon a new day has begun
I'm happy as the wandering one
May my heart be forever stirred
And music be the holy word
And you and I be stray birds
