(lyrics are written by Martha Scanlan) I lit out from your back door
Kicked an old can fifty miles or more
Written right there on the side of the can
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand

I looked up and I looked back
Walked a hundred miles down the railroad track
All's I can tell from where I stand
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand

Well love they tell me is a fragile thing
It's hard to fly on broken wings
Lost my ticket to the promised land
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand

So toss it up or pass it round
Pay mind to what you're carryin' round
Keep it close, hold it while you can
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand

Fallen hearts and fallen leaves
Starlings light on the broken trees
Find we all need a place to land
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand

So toss it up or pass it round
Pay mind to what you're carrying around
Keep it close, hold it while you can
There's a little bird of heaven right here in your hand
