From the recording Body & Soul
Bluebird tells the story of when someone close to you passes and yet you feel that you still see them from time to time and feel their presence. Like a bluebird watching over you until the time is right for you to start moving on.
Lyrics
Somewhere in the night I hear a bluebird call
Lost and lonely he can’t find his way at all
I hope his cries get answered soon
Before the darkness falls
Somewhere in the night I hear my bluebird call
Sometimes in my dreams I see his face again
Seems like only yesterday I find it hard to explain
Well my heart still aches and my eyes still weep
I cannot hide this pain
Sometimes in my dreams I see his face again
And now he’s free, free as a bird
Why can’t he see, see how much this hurts
I feel his touch
As if he’s holding me through these lonesome times
One day my bluebird will fly to these arms of mine
Something in the wind just called my name once more
Stirring up the memories from the days before
Thought I saw my bluebird soaring high
Back to the one he adores
Something in the wind just said goodbye once more
And now he’s free, free as a bird
Why can’t he see, see how much this hurts
I feel his touch
As if he’s holding me through these lonesome times
One day my bluebird will fly to these arms of mine
One day my bluebird will fly to these arms of mine
