Now my bird has gone away
Nothing I could do could make him stay
Shot down in the dead of night by a nowhere man
Had to read it twice just to understand

Fly fly away into the night

Oh my bird there’s still a song to sing
Though you’re gone for good it doesn’t change a thing
We talked about it talkled about it all night long
Waited in the rain for one more song, ah-ah

Fly fly away into the night
Bye bye my bird it’s allright

Shot down in the dead of night by a nowhere man
Had to read it twice just to understand

Fly fly away into the night
Bye bye my bird it’s allright
Oh fly away into the night
