The Meadow Lark Owl City

[Verse 1]
Upon a winding forest road
I met a soldier far from home
I saw he was my enemy
So I aimed at him and he at me
Prepared was I, but loath to shoot
And he, uncertain what to do
A cold sweat formed upon my brow
But we both kept rank and stood our ground
And then, the curious thing occurred
On wings arrived a tiny bird
And troubled not by war or peace
She sang for us a melody

[Chorus]
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh, oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh-ooh

[Verse 2]
I dared not move or look away
Lest my life, my foe would take
Yet in his eyes, I saw his fright
Just a boy like me afraid to die
The meadowlark sang on and on
Then morе arrived and joined the song
And as I hеld my rival stare
A tremendous chorus filled the air
Then in my heart, as clear as day
I heard a gentle whisper say
"My son, if My disciple be
Show grace and love your enemy"
