I cannot get too much of this song. I just keep searching out as many different recordings as I can. So beautiful and comforting.

LYRICS
Who Are You Redbird

Who are you redbird- sitting on a limb
A long lost loved one- or dear departed friend
You keep coming back to see me- every now and then
Who are you redbird- sitting on a limb

Sometimes when I’m feeling blue and lonely
Skies are gray and I’m running out of rope
I see you in the backyard checking on me
And hear you sing a simple song of hope

Who are you redbird- sitting on a limb
A long lost loved one- or dear departed friend
You keep coming back to see me- every now and then
Who are you redbird- sitting on a limb

You have a way of knowing where to find me
When I’m fighting battles on my own
You stay just long enough to remind me
That I’m never really alone

Who are you redbird- sitting on a limb
A long lost loved one- or dear departed friend
You keep coming back to see me- every now and then
Who are you redbird- sitting on a limb

My wife relates the red bird to her father who has passed away. Sweet song!!

[matthewbradley]

Dunno why but this song makes me cry.
A happy tune...but there is a sadness to it.
