i was a bird - mary chapin carpenter lyrics

[verse]
i was a bird that loved to fly
catching the wind as it went south
and i could touch every inch of sky
and the sweetest songs trilled from my mouth
but i’m no bird anyone can see
and there’s no wind waiting for me
it’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
to be a bird flying free
i was a cloud that loved to drift
offering shade to lay upon
and the greenest gr-ss was my gift
and a summer day was my song
but i’m no cloud anyone can see
and there’s just dust instead of green
it’s just a dream, it’s just a dream
to be a cloud drifting free
i was a light that loved to dance
without a care of who might see
i tempted fate and welcomed chance
and i held the world inside of me
the clouds have fled, and the birds have flown
and the light that was is all but gone
it’s just a dream, it’s just a dream

[outro]
to be a light
to be a cloud
to be a bird
flying free
