Little sparrow, little sparrow Precious fragile little Little sparrow, little sparrow Flies so high and feels no pain. All ye maidens, heed my warning Never trust the hearts of men They will crush you like a sparrow Leaving you to mend. They will vow to always love you Swear no but yours will do Then they'll leave you for another Break your heart in two.
Little sparrow, little sparrow Precious fragile little thing Little sparrow, little sparrow Flies so high and feels pain. If I were a little sparrow O'er these mountains I would fly I would find you, I would find Look into your lying eyes I would flutter all around you On my little sparrow wings I would ask you, I would you Why you let me love in vain. I am not a little sparrow I am just the broken dream Of a cold, false-hearted lover And your evil, cunning Little sparrow, little sparrow Precious fragile little thing Little sparrow, little sparrow so high and feels no pain. All ye maidens fair and tender Never trust the hearts of men They will you like a sparrow Leaving you to never mend.
Little sparrow, little sparrow Oh the sorrow never ends
