'O Little Songbird'

about

On 50/90, a songwriting site, one of the challenges was a random collaboration. The idea behind is to participate in a thread if anyone is interested in collaborating and the organizer of the thread randmomly pairs songwriters. For a long while I was hoping that one day I'll collaborate with Cola so I was delighted to see that Cola was announced as my random songwriting partner. Thank you so much Cola for your beautiful lyrics, vocal melody and vocals.

lyrics

'O Little Songbird'
© 2020 Cola (lyrics, vocal melody) and Nadia Cripps (music)

O little songbird
Where do you go
When the dark starts to threaten
And the wind starts to blow?
Do you fly far away?
Do you hunker down low?
O little songbird
Where do you go?

O little songbird
Where do you rest
When the rain starts to pour down
To the east and the west?
Can you sleep safe and sound
In the warmth of your nest?
O little songbird
Where do you rest?

O little songbird
Where do you hide
When the light strikes the earth
And a roar shakes the sky?
Do you watch from the trees
Till the storm passes by?
O little songbird
Where do you hide?

O little songbird
How do you cheer
When the tempest is over
And the sky’s blue and clear?
Do you sing songs of joy
For the whole world to hear?
O little songbird
How do you cheer?

Dear little songbird
Music to my ear
