Lady Bird
Flight of Love: Richie Cole's Lady Bird Revealed
Lyrics
I've been where the eagle flies
I've experienced the high altitudes where the eagle soars
Rode his wings 'cross autumn skies
Rode on the eagle's wings across autumn skies
Kissed the sun, touched the moon
Metaphorically kissed the sun and touched the moon
But he left me much too soon.
The eagle (metaphor) left too soon, possibly suggesting a fleeting or short-lived experience
His lady bird, he left his lady bird
Refers to the person left behind, his "lady bird"
Lady bird come on down
Inviting the lady bird to come down
I'm here waiting on the ground
Expresses waiting and anticipation on the ground
Lady bird I'll treat you good
Promises to treat the lady bird well
Aw, lady bird I wish you would.
Expresses a wish for the lady bird to come
You lady bird, pretty lady bird
Reiterates the affectionate term "lady bird"
Lightning flashed across the sky
Describes a moment of intensity and excitement with lightning
The night he taught me how to fly
Shares a metaphorical experience of learning how to fly
The sun came up and then I found
After the night of excitement, the reality sets in
Too soon he let his lady down.
Expresses disappointment as the eagle let his lady down
His lady bird, I'm his lady bird
Reaffirms the singer's identity as the lady bird
Lady bird come on down
Repeated invitation for the lady bird to come down
I'm here waiting on the ground
Reiterates waiting on the ground
Lady bird I'll treat you good
Reaffirms the intention to treat the lady bird well
Aw, lady bird I wish you would.
Expresses a strong desire for the lady bird to come
You lady bird, pretty lady bird
Reaffirms the affectionate term "lady bird"
Winter lives in my heart
Describes a sense of coldness or emotional distance in the singer's heart
In the times we're apart
Refers to the difficult times when they are apart
Summer sings a song or two
Describes the warmth and joy of summer when the eagle expresses love
When he says "I love you true".
The eagle's declaration of true love
My lady bird, yeah, I'm his lady bird
Reiterates the singer's identity as the lady bird
Lady bird come on down
Repeated invitation for the lady bird to come down
I'm here waiting on the ground
Reiterates waiting on the ground
Lady bird I'll treat you good
Reaffirms the intention to treat the lady bird well
Aw, lady bird I wish you would.
Expresses a strong desire for the lady bird to come
You lady bird, pretty lady bird (I,m your lady bird)
Reaffirms the affectionate term "lady bird" and emphasizes the singer's identity
You're a lady bird (Yes, I'm a lady bird)
Confirms the lady bird's identity
You're too much you little bird.
Describes the lady bird as extraordinary or overwhelming
