Little Sparrow

Lyrics

Little sparrow, little sparrow
 Precious fragile little thing
 Little sparrow, little sparrow
 Flies so high and feels no pain
 ♪
 All ye maidens, heed my warning
 Never trust the hearts of men
 They will crush you like a sparrow
 Leaving you to never mend
 They will vow to always love you
 Swear no love but yours will do
 Then they'll leave you for another
 Break your little heart in two
 Little sparrow, little sparrow
 Precious fragile little thing
 Little sparrow, little sparrow
 Flies so high and feels no pain
 ♪
 If I were a little sparrow
 O'er these mountains I would fly
 I would find him, I would find him
 Look into his lying eyes
 I would flutter all around him
 On my little sparrow wings
 I would ask him, I would ask him
 Why he let me love in vain
 I am not a little sparrow
 I am just the broken dream
 Of a cold false-hearted lover
 And his evil cunning scheme
 Little sparrow, little sparrow
 Precious fragile little thing
 Little sparrow, little sparrow
 Flies so high and feels no pain
 All ye maidens fair and tender
 Never trust the hearts of men
 They will crush you like a sparrow
 Leaving you to never mend
 Little sparrow, little sparrow
 Oh, the sorrow never ends
