So Says the Whipporwill

The change could happen anyday

So says the whippoorwill

She hangs around for the seeds I leave

Out on the windowsill

?Be-free-you-fool, be-free-you-fool?

She sings all afternoon

Then, as if to show me how it?s done,

She leaps into the blue

The change could happen anyday

So say my true love?s eyes

They see into my shadows

With their sweet, forgiving light

She smiles and says, Come on - let?s go

Let?s stroll the boulevard

It?s such a shame to waste the night

Just sitting in the dark

The change could happen anyday

Or so says Father Brown

I listen for that still small voice

But I just can?t make it out

Beneath the constant whispering

Of the devil that I know

But who would I be if I believed?

Who am I if I don?t?

The change could happen anyday

So said the mountaineer

Before he turned to face his cliff

Without a trace of fear

Yodel-ay-hee-hoo, yodel-ay-hee-hoo

He sang right up until

He caught sight of the open blue

And became a whippoorwill

He caught sight of the open blue

And became a whippoorwill
