[Verse 1]
When I was a child, an inch was a mile
Each passing day felt like a year
And now I'm here where time is fleet
It's short but sweet and that seems fair
[Verse 2]
Along the way, I'd have to say
I caused some hurt that I can't mend
And to that end, I came up short
If I were smart, I'd have left it right there
[Chorus]
There's this one little bird in the trees outside my door
And she's singing a song that goes right to the core
She says where will you go? Where will you be?
Why don't you know? Why can't you see it's almost over?
[Bridge]
I've seen the еnd of a rainbow
Through a Greyhound window
Blue northern lights 'cross a prairiе sky
But when a drink of cool water
From a dried-up mountain spring
Says as much about anything
As the fifth of July
You need to ask yourself why
When I was a child, an inch was a mile
Each passing day felt like a year
And now I'm here where time is fleet
It's short but sweet and that seems fair
[Verse 2]
Along the way, I'd have to say
I caused some hurt that I can't mend
And to that end, I came up short
If I were smart, I'd have left it right there
[Chorus]
There's this one little bird in the trees outside my door
And she's singing a song that goes right to the core
She says where will you go? Where will you be?
Why don't you know? Why can't you see it's almost over?
[Bridge]
I've seen the еnd of a rainbow
Through a Greyhound window
Blue northern lights 'cross a prairiе sky
But when a drink of cool water
From a dried-up mountain spring
Says as much about anything
As the fifth of July
You need to ask yourself why
