I'm Gonna Watch the Blue Bird Fly



        Candy says, I've come to hate my body
And all that it requires in this world

Candy says, I'd like to know completely
What others so discreetly talk about

I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch 'em pass me by
maybe when I'm older

What do you think I'd see
if I could walk away from me

Candy says, I hate the quiet places
That cause the smallest taste of what will be

Candy says, I hate the big decisions
That cause endless revisions in my mind

I'm gonna watch the blue birds fly
over my shoulder
I'm gonna watch 'em pass me by
maybe when I'm older

What do you think I'd see
if I could walk away from me

Doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo, doo-doo-wah
Doo

Hi Kevin -

This song is runner up to "I'll Be Your Mirror". And by the way, that's twice now your songs have caused me to cry. My goodness.

Love,
Gail
peace.....
