Blue Bird
Going here and there
Running to and fro
I saw you in Mexico
But you flew away
Before I could catch you
I saw you in Africa
But you just circled around me
Oh, Blue Bird, oh Blue Bird
When will you come to me
I need you ever so much
My days are long and sad
When will you make me glad
My child, my child
You don’t need me
I am the spirit of positive change
I symbolize the dawn of your new day
Embrace yourself
Embrace the person you have become
Forget the person you were
That’s the dawn of your new day
