Baby Bird and Home

You used to hold my little hand And tell me,

“There’s a world out there” You’d point at pictures on the wall

And say someday we’d go somewhere

Now I’m older, dreaming bigger But there’s one thing I know is

true

Every road I wanna travel I wanna travel there with you

So pack your bags,

Mom, don’t ask me where we’re going We’ll figure it out when

we get there

You can call me your Baby Bird As long as you promise

you’ll take me everywhere

I wanna see Paris with you

Watch the sunrise somewhere new Get lost on streets we’ve never known

And somehow still feel right at home I wanna laugh until we

cry Take a million pictures of the sky And when the whole

world feels too big

I’ll still be your Baby Bird

And you’ll still be my favorite trip

Maybe we’ll dance in little cafés Or chase the waves along the

shore You’ll tell me stories from your childhood I’ll tell you what

I’m dreaming for

And someday when I’m much older And my wings have learned to

fly

I hope you’ll still look at me With that same love in

your eyes

'Cause you always said,

“Go spread your wings” But you never said I had to go

alone If I could choose one person

To see the whole world with

I’d choose the place that feels like home

I wanna see London with you Drink something warm when the sky

turns blue Walk through places we’ve never been Then turn around and

do it all again I wanna laugh until we cry Take a

million pictures of the sky And when the whole world feels too

big

I’ll still be your Baby Bird

And you’ll still be my favorite trip

And Mom, if I could make one wish It wouldn’t be for

diamonds or gold

It’d be a little suitcase And your hand for me to hold

'Cause the world is full of wonders But none of them could

ever be

As beautiful as getting to

See them with you next to me

So let’s see the whole world,

you and me

Every mountain, every sea And wherever these two wings may go

There’s one thing I’ll always know No matter how far I fly

Or how many places I find I’ll always come back to you

'Cause I’m your Baby Bird

And you’re my whole world

too

So pack your bags,

Mom

The world is waiting there

Your Baby Bird is ready

As long as you’re beside me (mmm)
