Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh Ooh Ooh
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
And the days go by like a strand in the wind
In the web that is my own I begin again
Said to my friend, Baby, nothing else mattered
He was no more than a baby then
Well he seemed broken-hearted
Something within him
But the moment that I first laid eyes on him
All alone on the edge of seventeen
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Well I went today maybe I will go again tomorrow
And the music there well it was hauntingly familiar
When I see you doin what I try to do for me
With the words from a poet and a voice from a choir
And a melody, nothin else mattered
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
The clouds never expect it when it rains but the sea changes color
But the sea does not change
So with the slow sad graceful glow of age
I went forth with an age old desire to please
On the edge of seventeen
Ooh............
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Well then suddenly there was noone left standin in the hallway
Yeah Yeah, in a flood of tears that noone really ever heard fall at all
Well I went searchin for an answer up the stairs and down the hall
Not to find an answer but just to hear the call of a nightbird
Singin come away, come away, come away
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
Well I hear you in the mornin' and I hear you at nightfall
And sometimes to be near you is to be unable to hear you my love
Im a few years older than you my love
Just like the white winged dove sings a song sounds like shes singin
Ooh baby Ooh said Ooh
