Some years ago
I lived a hard life
But sunlight burst a ray
Through those clouds
We finally seen the back
Of those grey days
Please let the summer back to stay

And hold the sunbird in your hands
Don't let him sing too sweet
For too soon the summer sun
Will be in a winter sleep
And hold the sunbird in your hands
Don't let him sing too sweet
For too soon the summer sun
Will be in a winter sleep

You found yourself on the road
Inside your winter coat
But leave your troubles behind, now
You wrap yourself in a ball
Then hide away from it all
But let the sunbird in your heart

And hold the sunbird in your hands
Don't let him sing too sweet
For too soon the summer sun
Will be in a winter sleep
And hold the sunbird in your hands
Don't let him sing too sweet
For too soon the summer sun
Will be in a winter sleep
