Someday sparrow, you're gonna fly away Someday sparrow, you're gonna fly away Little sparrow, is gonna fly away Mighty sparrow, you're gonna fly away Paid a visit by the mystery My door was darkened with the misery Gathered up in the adversity I long to see you with your heart set free Someday sparrow, you're gonna fly away Someday sparrow, you're gonna fly away Little sparrow, is gonna fly away Mighty sparrow, you're gonna fly away I met an old friend on the road And I asked to share his load He said it wasn't mine to bear But he knew a song that we could share Shake the rain off of your wings And take to the sky of your dreams Someday sparrow, you're gonna fly away Someday sparrow, you're gonna fly away Little sparrow, is gonna fly away Mighty sparrow, you're gonna fly away
