Hey, Ladybird, ain't it just the way,
"¨the way that love grows cold and then fades away?
"¨Now when he touches you, make no mistake,"¨
the fire's long gone out and the ash has blown away.
You don't know how to leave and you don't know where to fly.
"¨You don't know what you feel"¨but you know it's not satisfied today.
So many little ones, so many mouths,"¨
you've got a lot to feed and you know you don't know how.
"¨Making the best of it, somehow you're making do,
"¨making the best of the days that you stay
"¨and you wait in this cage they made for you.
You don't know how to leave"¨and you don't know where to fly.
"¨You've got a lot of things to lose, "¨
so you've got a lot of things to hide."¨
You know you don't believe"¨but you know you've got to try today.
You know the sweetest wine, it's a witches' brew,
"¨pours like honey down and then burns a hole in you."¨
Yeah, you may think you're done but you're never through"¨spitting out
the bitterness to get the little sweetness you do.
You don't know how to leave"¨and you don't know where to fly."¨
You've got a lot of things to lose, "¨
so you've got a lot of things to hide."¨
You don't know what you feel"¨but you know it's not satisfied."¨
You know you don't believe"¨but you know you've got to try today.
Feel the winter bitterness; "¨it's heavy on the wind,"¨coming back again."¨"¨
Maybe it's time to fly, time to fly away!
"¨When you gonna spread your wings and fly?
When you gonna fly away?
When you gonna fly away?
