One Less Bird

Summer night we were 17 When she said I love you But baby I'm leaving Come tomorrow you come and see me when you can We had some times here We had some live here Remember driving all through the night? We would talk like someday we'd stop somewhere and make it home But time rolls on and it's time that I let you Some'll run back or some run free Some will pack their bags up and chase down dreams And they used to say if you love someone let her fly All I know is there's one less bird here tonight One last weekend and one last picture One last day trip to laugh about later One more moment that takes you farther out from me They say that distance can grow your heart But every day spent away makes you feel farther Some'll run back or some run free Some will pack their bags up and chase down dreams And they used to say if you love someone let her fly All I know is there's one less bird here tonight Some'll run back or some run free Some will pack their bags up and chase down dreams And they used to say if you love someone let her fly Some'll run back or some run free Some'll pack their bags up and chase down dreams And they used to say if you love someone let her fly All I know is there's one less bird here tonight There's one last bird In this lonely cage Tonight
