Lyrics

[Verse 1] Little girl, little girl with the big round eyes Little bird, little bird, one day you'll fly A breathtaking flight of life you'll fly Then little bird, little bird, you will die Little girl, little girl with the big round eyes Little bird, little bird, one day you'll fly A breathtaking flight of life you'll fly Then little bird, little bird, you will die [Chorus] Because life, life is a vapor But the brevity is what makes it a treasure So feel it all like a love letter To the One you live with forever His eye is on the sparrow His eye is on you [Verse 2] What then, what then when it's all over? Little bones, little bones the dust will cover Little spirit, little spirit you'll live on With the soul of the bird that goes on and on Then little bones, little bones You will rise and little girl, little girl You will fly-y, fly-y [Chorus] Because life, life is a vapor And the brevity is what makes it a treasure So feel it all like a love letter To the One you live with forever His eye is on the sparrow His eye is on you
