lyrics

Kennedy came to me by an ocean in a dream
pointed to the clouds and asked me what
What do I see?
A little white songbird sitting silently.
Who else could kill her?
Who else but me?

I took her from her home,
Put her in a cage,
Where the wolves could come and get her

And I do miss her.
Maybe she's better off dead?
Maybe she's better off dead?
But I do miss her.
Miss her so.

And god came to me by a mountain in a dream
said, "sure as the fallen leaves don't flow
against the stream
The little white songbird wasn't killed",
she was
she was
she was set free
