Singing Bird
Babyface
There were two friends
that's where this'll begin and end
They played together when they were young
they were chasing the glow bugs into the sun
One night after a few days
They laid down in the grass to catch the rays
The moon greeted them with a large open eye
As the friends laid there the moon began to cry
"Why do you steal what belongs to me?" the moon cried out to the sea
"Those little bugs are the sun and mine, when you take them away your hands steal time."
Grass rustled and earth quaked, and the friends ran to where the jars had baked.
From the sun of the days that had pasted so quickly
The friends saw dead bugs and some that looked sickly
Opening the jar they launched them into the night
Got down on their knees and prayed for good flight
When they stood their jeans bore the truth: the bugs were smashed beneath and were the burden of proof
The moon frowned upon the earthly people
Looked at them hard, tried to look evil
But then from within the moon saw their saddened parts
And said "Just this one time I'll bless your little hearts."
***
Freedom is forgiving others- and yourself.
