(Stevie Nicks)
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo-whoo-whoo
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo
|
Said, whoo
|
|
And the days go by
|
Like a strand in the wind
|
In the web that is my own
|
I begin again
|
Said to my friend, baby
|
Nothin' else mattered
|
|
He was no more
|
(He was no more)
|
Than a baby then
|
Well, he seemed broken hearted
|
Somethin' within him
|
But the moment
|
That I first laid
|
Eyes on him
|
All alone on the edge of seventeen
|
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo, whoo
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Said, whoo, baby, whoo
|
Said, whoo
|
|
Well, I went today
|
Maybe I will go again
|
Tomorrow, yeah, yeah
|
Well, the music there
|
Well it was hauntingly familiar
|
When I see you doin'
|
What I try to do for me
|
With their words of a poet
|
And a voice from a choir
|
And a melody
|
Nothin' else mattered
|
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo, said whoo
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Said, whoo, baby, whoo
|
Said, whoo
|
|
The clouds never expect it
|
When it rains
|
But the sea changes colours
|
But the sea
|
Does not change
|
So with the slow graceful flow
|
Of age
|
I went forth with an age old
|
Desire to please
|
On the edge of seventeen
|
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo, said whoo
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo
|
Said, whoo
|
|
Well then suddenly
|
There was no one left standing
|
In the hall, yeah, yeah
|
In a flood of tears
|
That no one really ever heard fall at all
|
When I went searchin' for an answer
|
Up the stairs and down the hall
|
Not to find an answer
|
Just to hear the call
|
Of a nightbird singin'
|
(Come away)
|
(Come away)
|
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo, said whoo
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo
|
Said, whoo
|
|
Well, I hear you (well, I hear you)
|
In the morning (in the morning)
|
And I hear you (and I hear you)
|
At nightfall (at nightfall)
|
Sometime to be near you
|
Is to be unable to hear you
|
My love
|
I'm a few years older than you
|
(I'm a few years older than you)
|
|
Just like the white winged dove
|
Sings a song
|
Sounds like she's singin'
|
Whoo, baby, whoo
|
Said, whoo
|
