[Verse 1: Jesper Lindell] The radio tells me the weather's so, so sweet But I ain't seen the sun in six or seven weeks It makes no difference to me It might as well be snowin' sleet, mm-hmm Sixty long years together 'neath the sun Work this thing until each day was done But then she slipped away from me Twelve years before her body Mm-hmm, mm-hmm [Chorus: Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza] She's the bird that flys Every star up in the sky The wind that whispers and cries Out a strange goodbye [Verse 2: Kassi Valazza, Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza] He just turned nineteen and I was twenty-three I asked him for a cigarette by the old factory But never in my wildest dreams Would that boy be marryin' me, mm-hmm We bought a little place in the shade of some old pine trees Couple cows and a dog, and a few old sheep But now, that's all lost like a dream Or some old forgotten movie scene Mm-hmm, mm-hmm [Chorus: Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza] She's the bird that flys Every star up in the sky The wind that whispers and cries Out a strange goodbye [Verse 3: Jesper Lindell] I remember the day she first forgot my name I tried to remind her through a picture frame The grandkids often came She always loved them the same, mm-hmm I stood by her, though sometimes she'd beat me up When you cast down at the racetracks said, "Man, ain't you had enough?" But she's my best friend, you see And she'd do the same for me Mm-hmm, mm-hmm [Chorus: Jesper Lindell & Kassi Valazza] She's the bird that flys Every star up in the sky The wind that whispers and cries Out a strange goodbye [Outro: Jesper Lindell] The radio tells me it's gettin' cold outside And if the storm gets closer, I don't think I'll make it out alive But maybe I'll see my bride Greet me on the other side, mm-hmm
