If you look out your window as the sun's going down I'll be there by the side of the road And I'll ride you away from this dirty old town And never again leave you alone For you were the bird that I held in my hand Till I learned to fly on my own You're a garden in this God forsaken land And the only true love I have known The morning was freezing the sky was still dark When I last laid eyes upon you Oh, I know the ache you have held in your heart For darling, I have felt it too For you were the bird that I held in my hand Till I learned to fly on my own You're a garden in this God forsaken land And the only true love I have known
