LITTLE BIRDIE

SAGE 2006 (Lagos)



Look at that little birdie.
It cries to me every morning.
How I wish I could understand you, little birdie.
You bring message to me that my ears doesn't pick.
Yet,you sing beautifully in my ears.

Little birdie little birdie, your songs gives life to this lifeless heart.
When I feel sad, your songs gives me joy.
Your voice is like music to my ears.
Dear little birdie, you give me nothing but joy.

My ears longs for your songs.
While,I long for your arrival.
Little birdie little birdie, come soon for my heart is in chaos.
I have gotten used to you little birdie.
Little birdie little birdie, you are my joy giver.
