[Verse 1] With straw in its beak the shellick bird flies away far so very far The bullock cart moves along the dusty rural road far so very far With straw in its beak the robin flies away far so very far The BX22 bus moves along the Unionport Road far so very far [Chorus] All birds return home you will return too when it is twilight or right Ink scratches tear through the pages of a notebook anytime everytime Everytime [Bridge] (Whoa) (Whoa) (Whoa) All the doves of the world Went out together In the hazel forest In spring In the breeze they linger A touch cries from the roaring sea Whole sea [Chorus] All birds return home you will return too when twilight or right Ink scratches tear through the pages of a poet's notebook anytime everytime Everytime I will return again back to the banks of the Upper East River I will return again back to the banks of the Upper East River [Verse 2] With straw in its beak the nightingale flies away far so very far The 2012 model moves along the Country Club Road far so very far With straw in its beak the pigeon flies away far so very far The Bronx bound six train moves through the local route far so very far [Chorus] All birds return home you will return too when twilight or right Ink scratches tear through the pages of a notebook anytime everytime Everytime (Whoa) (Whoa) (Whoa)
