"Hummingbird (2001 Recording)" lyrics - LEON RUSSELL

Sometimes I get impatient
Cool me without words
Comes so sweet and softly
My hummingbird, have you heard

I thought my life had ended
I find that it's just begun
She gets me where I live
I give her everything I have to give
Talking about my hummingbird

[Chorus:]
She's little and I love her too much for words to say
When I see her in the morning sleeping
She's little and she loves me too, my lucky day
Hummingbird don't fly away

[Piano solo]

When I'm feeling wild and lonesome
I know the words to say
To give me understanding
In that special way I have to say

In my life I'll love no other
More than I deserve
She gets me where I live
I give her everything I have to give
Talking about my hummingbird

[Chorus:]
She's little and I love her too much for words to say
When I see her in the morning sleeping
She's little and she loves me too, my lucky day
Hummingbird don't fly away

[Outro:]
(Don't fly away, ooh)
(Don't fly away, ooh)
(Don't fly away, ooh)
(Don't fly away, ooh)
