The Cat in the Window [The Bird in the Sky] lyrics

Fly away, fly away

There's a cat in the window

And he's watching all the birds go passing by

He'd love to fly out the window

Go where the wind goes

And so would I

Like that cat in the window

Who keeps wishing for some wings to take a ride

I'd love to glide to a rainbow

Off where the clouds go dancing by

And if I could fly

You wouldn't find me hangin' around

Watching the birds go by

Yes, the cat in the window

Has a tear in his eye

I should leave today

Fly away

Why, oh why

Should I stay

Like the cat in the window

Who keeps watching the birds

Go by from my window

If I could fly though

You won't find me

Don't even try to
