I saw a Bluebird

I saw a bluebird in the rain, It fluttered across a mist-filled lawn, With boundless joy I can't explain. It sang a song, echoed across the lane, For no-one to hear; for a world forlorn, The bluebird I saw, in the rain. The song lifted high, it didn't refrain, From singing until the break of dawn, With boundless joy I can't explain. The wind tried to stifle it, all in vain, As it sung all night, not a break, not a yawn. The little bluebird in the rain. Now sweet memories are all that remain, Of the bluebird's melody, ringing in the morn, With boundless joy I can't explain. I'd like to hear it's sound again, The sweetest song that ever was born, From when I saw a bluebird in the rain, With boundless joy I can't explain.
