Lyrics

How silly sound the rain drops Are dancing at my feet And tingling on my face It seems to sparkle, yeah, then it weeps for me And they carried by a dream Of raindrops to the night A song I hear a-jingling And sweetly does it call Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding, bird Sing your song for me Hey, little bird I walk beneath the trees And I see an ageless man Who plays a timeless tune Upon a golden banjo And he sings a song of laughter And sadness that whispers To the darkness of the trees Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Little bird Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Little bird Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding bird in a ding-dong tree Won't you sing a song to me Oh, crazy little bird of my dreams And now I see A dancing boy who steps the stones That mark the path of time To catch the wind that blows his blues away Oh, ring-a-ding bird, can't you see the sadness That's deep in his eyes? Little bird Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Little bird Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Little bird Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding, bird Sitting high I wonder now why you don't fly away Little bird of my dreams Hey little bird Please set me free I beg of you For now I see A strange young girl Who is standing there And she cries alone Beneath the branches That are hangin' splendour Who's she might be Lord, I'll never know Until I'm free Must I pass her by? How I wish you could hear What is calling on me Strange young girl Set me free from the spell And a-hold me to thy breast And lead me from the woodland And the call that I hear Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Little bird Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Little bird Oh, ring-a-ding Oh, ring-a-ding Little bird ...
