Why don't these problems just go away?
Time should have healed our old heartache
Childhood just would not be overcome
Mistakes that were made could not be undone

I tried my best, but it's too late
Taking care was just my fate
You are still young and free and fun
Break those chains and you can run

Little Bird, why not go live in London?
I heard you have a friend there
Maybe with her you could stay
Little Bird, why not go live in London?
Go out and see the world
Come on, you've never lеft LA

Little Bird, there's such a strеngth inside you
Like a seed waiting for the rain
Little Bird, if the doctor hasn't told you
You are beautiful and so very full of grace
Full of grace, full of grace, full of grace
Full of grace, full of grace, full of grace
Full of grace, full of grace, full of grace
Why don't these problems just go away?
Time should have healed our old heartache
Childhood just would not be overcome
By the grown-ups that we've become

Little Bird, why not go to Paris?
There is a drummer there
I know he took your breath away
Little Bird, why not go to Paris?
See some old paintings
And all those shops in Le Marais

Little Bird, trust your intuition
Don't be scared to let someone inside
Little Bird, our nest was all broken
But spread your wings and know that you can fly
You can fly, you can fly, you can fly
You can fly, you can fly, you can fly
You can fly, you can fly, you can fly

But it's not easy facing the truth
What really happened to you
Feelings of a helpless child
Secret things that you had to hide
Martyr, you suffered more than your share
Your mother said he wouldn't dare
Doors closed, it happened all the time
No one knows, hush now, don't you cry
Don't you cry, don't you cry, don't you cry
Don't you cry, don't you cry, don't you cry
Cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, cry, cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, cry, cry, baby, cry
If you need to cry, cry, baby, cry
If you need to cry
If you need to cry, cry, baby, cry
If you need to cry, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry
Cry, baby, cry, baby, cry, baby, cry

Why don't these problems just go away?
Taking care was just my fate
The future is yours, what can you dream?
Don't let the past rule everything

Little Bird, why not go live in London?
I heard you have a friend there
Maybe with her you could stay
Little Bird, how about Mexico City?
Or San Miguel de Allende?
Little bird, how about Vancouver BC
Santa Cruz or Santa Fe?
Or Philadelphia or San Francisco?
Or Minneapolis or Toronto?
Miami, Memphis, Maui pronto
You gotta get away
Bali or Bangkok, Denver or Dallas
Maybe Atlanta or Atlantis
Taipei, Tokyo, Hong Kong or Kansas
Anywhere but LA
Oh little bird, little bird, little bird
You gotta get away
Oh little bird, little bird, little bird
You got to fly away
