The Grateful Dead
Bird Song (Live at the Warfield Theatre, San Francisco, October 14, 1980)
[Verse 1]
All I know is something like a bird within her sang
All I know she sang a little while and then flew on
Tell me all that you know
I'll show you
Snow and rain

[Verse 2]
If you hear that same sweet song again, will you know why?
Anyone who sings a tune so sweet is passing by
Laugh in the sunshine
Sing, cry in the dark
Fly through the night

[Refrain]
Don't cry now
Don't you cry
Don't you cry anymore
La da da da
Sleep in the stars
Don't you cry
Dry your eyes on the wind
La da da da, da, da

[Instrumental Break]
[Verse 2]
If you hear that same sweet song again, will you know why?
Anyone who sings a tune so sweet is passing by
Laugh in the sunshine
Sing, cry in the dark
Fly through the night

[Refrain]
Don't cry now
Don't you cry
Don't you cry anymore
La da da da
Sleep in the stars
Don't you cry
Dry your eyes on the wind
La da da da, da, da

[Verse 1]
All I know is something like a bird within her sang
All I know she sang a little while and then flew on
Tell me all that you know
I'll show you
Snow and rain

[Outro]
Snow and rain
