Like a bird on the wing
She's a vision to behold
With a song that she sings
That you've never heard before
With a love that she brings
Your melancholy's cure
But you gave up your guns
Like the treaty of Versailles
Now you step to the drum
That's been beating out of time
Now your love's on the run
Your melancholy's cure
All night long
I could watch her go
Hear the love songs
On the radio
Like a bird on the wing
She's a vision to behold
With a song that she sings
That you've never heard before
With a love that she brings
Your melancholy's cure
But you gave up your guns
Like the treaty of Versailles
Now you step to the drum
That's been beating out of time
Now your love's on the run
Your melancholy's cure
Like a bird on the wing
She's a vision to behold
With a song that she sings
That you've never heard before
With a love that she brings
Your melancholy's cure
But you gave up your guns
Like the treaty of Versailles
Now you step to the drum
That's been beating out of time
Now your love's on the run
Your melancholy's cure
