D
Come back babybird
           G
With your dirty wings in tatters
Bm
Come home where you belong
   A
Nobody knows you better
Now bring back your velvet heart
And we'll make you brand new feathers
Sleep through the morning light
With your arms around your brother

D                    G
Babybird, come back home
D                               G
Babybird, you were never really on your own

Now outside faces cry
With the tears of lonesome orphans
And behind every mask 
Is the face of another
Wherever you have been
Wherever you took cover
No arms that pulled you in 
Could hold you like your mother

Babybird, come back home
Babybird, you were never really on your own

When all my colors fade
And my wings, they've turned to leather
I'll know the reasons why 
God let me get older
When all my days are through
And I fly these hills no longer
I'll lay beneath the stars
And I'll watch you flying over

Babybird, come back home
Babybird, you were never really on your own

Babybird, come back home
Babybird, you will never be all alone
