Little Bird
Jazzanova Lyrics

Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴

Of all the things I've found in life
No moment's better than this
Of all the things I had ever known
Nothing prepared me for your kiss

If we fly, if we fly, if we fly into this song
Of all the things I needed, baby
You were my cherished one

A little bird told me that you can't find your way home
A little bird has shown me that you can't run away from love

Darkness falls upon the city
Like the ocean falls upon the sand
Waves of sorrow leave me breathless
Can you love this broken man
If I try, if I try, if I try to love again

I wake up every morning
Not sure of where I stand

A little bird told me that you can't find your way home
A little bird has shown me that you can't run away from love

Open wide my feelings
And tear me down until I break, yes
Show me what the real is
Guaranteed to seal my faint

If I cry, if I cry, if I cry when you'll be gone, oh
Help me about my sadness
Tell me I'm the only one

Hold me, hold me, hold me, angel
Hold me, hold me, hold me, angel

Love was only given when you feel it in your heart
I knew it when you kissed my body
Love in every part

Of all the things I had found in life
No moment's better than this
Of all the things I had ever known
Nothing prepared me for your kiss

If we fly, if we fly, if we fly into this song
Of all the things I needed, baby
You were my cherished one

A little bird told me that you can't find your way home
A little bird has shown me that you can't run away from love

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Jazzanova's "Little Bird" seem to be centered around love and the journey one goes on for it. The line "Of all the things I've found in life, no moment's better than this" suggests the singer has been searching for something, whether it be love or enlightenment, and has found it in this moment. The following line "nothing prepared me for your kiss" reinforces the idea that this love is unexpected but greatly appreciated. The chorus "if we fly into this song" and "of all the things I needed, baby, you were my cherished one" continue to emphasize the importance and beauty of love.

The second half of the lyrics take a darker turn, discussing the challenges and pain that come with love. The line "darkness falls upon the city, waves of sorrow leave me breathless" paints a picture of heartbreak and despair. However, the little bird keeps popping up throughout the lyrics as a symbol of hope and a reminder that love cannot be escaped. The lines "if I try to love again" and "hold me, angel" suggest a desire for healing and comfort. The lyrics ultimately seem to be about the ups and downs of love and the importance of holding onto it.

Line by Line Meaning

Of all the things I've found in life
Out of everything I have discovered in my life

No moment's better than this
This moment is the best

Of all the things I had ever known
Out of everything I had ever been aware of

Nothing prepared me for your kiss
I was not ready for your kiss, it caught me off guard

If we fly, if we fly, if we fly into this song
If we get lost in this song

Of all the things I needed, baby
Out of all the things I required, my dear

You were my cherished one
You were the one I adored the most

A little bird told me that you can't find your way home
I heard through the grapevine that you cannot find your way home

A little bird has shown me that you can't run away from love
I have been shown that you cannot escape love

Darkness falls upon the city
The city is being enveloped in darkness

Like the ocean falls upon the sand
Just like the waves of the ocean crashing onto the sand

Waves of sorrow leave me breathless
I am left gasping for air from this overwhelming sorrow

Can you love this broken man
Can you love someone who is damaged?

If I try, if I try, if I try to love again
If I attempt to love again

I wake up every morning
Every morning I wake up

Not sure of where I stand
I am unsure of my current situation

Open wide my feelings
Allowing for my feelings to be exposed

And tear me down until I break, yes
And break me down completely and utterly

Show me what the real is
Show me what reality is

Guaranteed to seal my faint
Promised to reinforce my weakness

If I cry, if I cry, if I cry when you'll be gone, oh
If I cry once you have left

Help me about my sadness
Assist me with my grief

Tell me I'm the only one
Let me know that I am the only one for you

Hold me, hold me, hold me, angel
Embrace me, embrace me, embrace me, angel

Love was only given when you feel it in your heart
Love is only true if you feel it in your heart

I knew it when you kissed my body
I knew it was love when you kissed me

Love in every part
Love in every fiber of my being
