Let me tell you how much

I so wanted to fly

I came to you so hurriedly

You barely heard me cry

I loved you for those moments

You kept me in your womb

And I will love you evermore 

As they lay me in my tomb

See I was just a little bird

Whose wings were not too strong

I was meant to grace your life

But not for very long

My wings you see were broken

And so I could not fly

But God has taken me back with him

So you see I did not die

Though my wings were broken

I tried to do my part

By flying swiftly in your life

I will remain right in your heart

So do not cry or weep for me

For God will mend my wings

And you will still remember me
