Lyrics
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
And the days go by like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own, I begin again
Said to my friend (everything's right)
"Baby, you know nothin' else matters"
He was no more than a baby then
Well, well, he seemed broken-hearted
It was something within him
Ooh, but the moment that I first laid
Eyes on him, all alone (on the edge of)
Somewhere just out on the edge of seventeen
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's sing it to you
"Ooh, ooh, ooh"
Well, then suddenly there was no one
Left standing in the hall
Well, well, in a flood of tears that
No one really ever heard fall
I went searchin' for an answer
Up the stairs and down the hall
I did not find an answer, but I could hear the call of a night bird
Singing, "Come away, come now" (come away, come away)
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
Well, I hear you in the morning (I hear you in the morning)
Baby, I hear you at nightfall (but I hear you at nightfall)
Sometime to be near you
Is to be unable to hear you
My love
I'm a few years older than you are
Well, I'm a few years older than you
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin'
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya
"Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
I hear the call of the night bird
I still hear the call of the night bird
She said, "Follow my dreams, in the middle of the night
Baby, I think about you"
Yeah, she said, "Follow my dreams, in the middle of the night
Baby, I think about you"
She said, "I know what it sounds like
I know what it sounds like
I know what it sounds like
Sounds like you, you you"
I know what it sounds like
I know what it sounds like
When doves cry
