Little sparrow, little sparrow
|
Precious fragile little thing
|
Little sparrow, little sparrow
|
Flies so high and feels no pain.
|
|
All ye maidens, heed my warning
|
Never trust the hearts of men
|
They will crush you like a sparrow
|
Leaving you to never mend.
|
|
They will vow to always love you
|
Swear no love but yours will do
|
Then they'll leave you for another
|
Break your little heart in two.
|
|
Little sparrow, little sparrow
|
Precious fragile little thing
|
Little sparrow, little sparrow
|
Flies so high and feels no pain.
|
|
If I were a little sparrow
|
O'er these mountains I would fly
|
I would find you, I would find you
|
Look into your lying eyes.
|
|
I would flutter all around you
|
On my little sparrow wings
|
I would ask you, I would ask you
|
Why you let me love in vain.
|
|
I am not a little sparrow
|
I am just the broken dream
|
Of a cold, false-hearted lover
|
And your evil, cunning scheme.
|
|
Little sparrow, little sparrow
|
Precious fragile little thing
|
Little sparrow, little sparrow
|
Flies so high and feels no pain.
|
|
All ye maidens fair and tender
|
Never trust the hearts of men
|
They will crush you like a sparrow
|
Leaving you to never mend.
|
|
Little sparrow, little sparrow
|
Oh the sorrow never ends.
