Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' "Ooh, ooh, ooh" Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' "Ooh, ooh, 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 (everything's right) "Baby, you know nothin' else matters"
He was no more than a baby then Well, well, he seemed broken-hearted It was something within him
Ooh, but the moment that I first laid Eyes on him, all alone (on the edge of) Somewhere just out on the edge of seventeen
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' "Ooh, ooh, ooh" Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's sing it to you "Ooh, ooh, ooh"
Well, then suddenly there was no one Left standing in the hall Well, well, in a flood of tears that No one really ever heard fall
I went searchin' for an answer Up the stairs and down the hall I did not find an answer, but I could hear the call of a night bird Singing, "Come away, come now" (come away, come away)
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' "Ooh, baby, ooh, take me" Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya "Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
Well, I hear you in the morning (I hear you in the morning) Baby, I hear you at nightfall (but I hear you at nightfall) Sometime to be near you Is to be unable to hear you My love I'm a few years older than you are Well, I'm a few years older than you
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' "Ooh, baby, ooh, take me" Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singin' to ya "Ooh, baby, ooh, take me"
I hear the call of the night bird I still hear the call of the night bird
She said, "Follow my dreams, in the middle of the night Baby, I think about you" Yeah, she said, "Follow my dreams, in the middle of the night Baby, I think about you"
She said, "I know what it sounds like I know what it sounds like I know what it sounds like Sounds like you, you you"
I know what it sounds like I know what it sounds like When doves cry
