If Souls Have Wings
AmThere's a bird in the wood,
Glying still as she could
Fwaiting for death
Eto come.
AmShe has a wound to her heart,
Ga wing badly broken,
Fshe lay in her blood
Eand she sings:
AmIf souls have wings
GI'll be flying again.
FSoon I'll be flEying
Amagain.
AmAnd now the forest trees
Gare dropping their leaves,
Fa blanket of warmth
Efor the night.
AmAnd a star shines down,
Ginto her eyes,
Fshe remembers the light
Eand she sings:
AmIf souls have wings
GI'll be flying again.
FSoon I'll be flEying
Amagain.
Only GCod knows
to Gcome for those
with Fwings that will carry
them Ehome.
And you Cknow, not when
you'll be Gflying again.
FSoon, you'll be fElying
Amagain.
AmFor the night seems long
Gas she waits for the dawn,
Fand takes in the last
Eof her breath.
AmSo, she tries to hold strong,
Gbut what if she's wrong,
Fand there's nothing that comes
Eafter death.
AmStill she lifts her head high
Greaches up to the sky,
FAnd with one final cry,
Eshe sings:
AmIf souls have wings
GI'll be flying again.
FSoon I'll be flEying
Amagain.
Only GCod knows
to Gcome for those
with Fwings that will carry
them Ehome.
And you Cknow, not when
you'll be Gflying again.
FSoon, you'll be fElying
Amagain.
AmWhen her song was sung,
Ga silence hung,
Fand her body lay lifeless
Eand cold.
AmThen the forest trees,
Gbowed to the breeze,
Fthat came for the little
Ebird's soul.
AmAnd with one mighty breath
Gshe awoke from her death,
Fto fly toward the sky
Eand sing:
AmMy soul has wings and
GI'm flying again.
FLook at me flyiEng
Amagain.
Only GCod knows
to Gcome for those
with Fwings that will carry
them Ehome.
And you Cknow, not when
you'll be Gflying again.
FSoon, you'll be fElying
Amagain.

If Souls Have Wings

There's a bird in the wood,

lying still as she could

waiting for death

to come.

She has a wound to her heart,

a wing badly broken,

she lay in her blood

and she sings:

If souls have wings

I'll be flying again.

F E

Soon I'll be flying

again.

And now the forest trees

are dropping their leaves,

a blanket of warmth

for the night.

And a star shines down,

into her eyes,

she remembers the light

and she sings:

If souls have wings

I'll be flying again.

F E

Soon I'll be flying

again.

Only God knows

to come for those

with wings that will carry

them home.

And you know, not when

you'll be flying again.

F E

Soon, you'll be flying

again.

For the night seems long

as she waits for the dawn,

and takes in the last

of her breath.

So, she tries to hold strong,

but what if she's wrong,

and there's nothing that comes

after death.

Still she lifts her head high

reaches up to the sky,

And with one final cry,

she sings:

If souls have wings

I'll be flying again.

F E

Soon I'll be flying

again.

Only God knows

to come for those

with wings that will carry

them home.

And you know, not when

you'll be flying again.

F E

Soon, you'll be flying

again.

When her song was sung,

a silence hung,

and her body lay lifeless

and cold.

Then the forest trees,

bowed to the breeze,

that came for the little

bird's soul.

And with one mighty breath

she awoke from her death,

to fly toward the sky

and sing:

My soul has wings and

I'm flying again.

F E

Look at me flying

again.

Only God knows

to come for those

with wings that will carry

them home.

And you know, not when

you'll be flying again.

F E

Soon, you'll be flying

again.
