Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Who who who Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh And the days go by Like a strand in the wind In the web that is my own I begin again Said to my friend, baby Nothin' else mattered He was no more than a baby then Well he seemed broken hearted Something within him But the moment that I first laid Eyes on him all alone On the edge of seventeen Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh I went today maybe I will go again Tomorrow And the music there it was hauntingly Familiar And I see you doing What I try to do for me With the words from a poet And the voice from a choir And a melody nothing else mattered Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh The clouds never expect it When it rains But the sea changes colors But the sea Does not change And so with the slow graceful flow Of age I went forth with an age old Desire to please On the edge of seventeen Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh Well then suddenly There was no one left standing In the hall yeah yeah In a flood of tears That no one really ever heard fall at all Oh I went searchin' for an answer, Up the stairs and down the hall Not to find an answer Just to hear the call Of a nightbird singing Come away come away Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh Well I hear you in the morning And I hear you At nightfall Sometime to be near you Is to be unable to hear you My love I'm a few years older than you Just like the white winged dove Sings a song Sounds like she's singing Oh baby oh said oh
