Bird on a telephone wire
|
come down and sing to me
|
have you heard from my father
|
have you any news to bring
|
|
I know I'm not the only one asking
|
among wondering souls around here
|
can you shout it from the highest peak
|
or at least whisper it in my ear
|
|
I knocked on the door of my neighbor
|
To asked him if he had received
|
the holy key to heaven
|
my father promised to me
|
|
I'm not the only one asking
|
Among wondering souls down here
|
So brother if you know the answer
|
Please whisper it in my ear
|
|
I'm reaching for heaven
|
Down on my knees, down on my knees
|
Now I'm finally getting nearer to heaven
|
and nearer to thee
|
|
I know I'm not the only one asking
|
among wondering souls down here
|
can you shout it from the highest peak
|
or at least whisper it in my ear
|
|
Bird on a telephone wire
|
Come down and sing to me
