[Verse 1]
Blown down the highway by two different winds
Lord only knows when I'll see you again
You're 'bout as close as the stars up above
You're my long distance love

[Chorus]
Kentucky bluebird, I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you, you fly away

[Verse 2]
Blue is a feeling I'm learning so well
Turn on the TV in another hotel
Turn down the volume and stare at the wall
God, I wish you would call

[Chorus]
Kentucky bluebird, I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you, you fly away

[Bridge]
How I hate the miles between us
They get longer each day
I had this dream and you should have seen us
Holding each other and drifting away
[Chorus]
Kentucky bluebird, I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you, you fly away
Kentucky bluebird, I heard your song today
But when I try to touch you, you fly away
You fly away
