Lyrics



Love is like a stray rebellious bird
call it and you’ll never hear a word
it’s not the feather flutter sound
it’s just the wind swirling around
Love is like a stray rebellious bird

Turn away and then she will appear
wait no more and wings will flicker near
it’s likely love will come to you
when you’ve given up your due
she wants only who does not want her

Where is the love – why dont you show me
Where is the love – don’t act like you don’t know me

the song she’ll sing to you will cast a spell
her beauty, rare, will cause your heart to swell
just when you think she’s in your palm
you’ll open it to find she’s gone
then you’ll cry more than the whippoorwill

Where is the love – why dont you show me
Where is the love – don’t act like you don’t know me

When you need her most she will not come
selfish and untamed, she’ll abandon
she’ll turn her wings and fly away
there is no law she must obey
she’ll depart as quickly as the sun, as the sun

Where is the love – why dont you show me
Where is the love – don’t act like you donÕt know me
