Richard Shindell - So Says The Whipporwill

The change could happen anyday 


So says the whippoorwill 


She hangs around for the seeds I leave 


Out on the windowsill 


“Be-free-you-fool, be-free-you-fool” 


She sings all afternoon 


Then, as if to show me how it’s done, 


She leaps into the blue 





The change could happen anyday 


So say my true love’s eyes 


They see into my shadows 


With their sweet, forgiving light 


She smiles and says, Come on - let’s go 


Let’s stroll the boulevard 


It’s such a shame to waste the night 


Just sitting in the dark 





The change could happen anyday 


Or so says Father Brown 


I listen for that still small voice 


But I just can’t make it out 


Beneath the constant whispering 


Of the devil that I know 


But who would I be if I believed? 


Who am I if I don’t? 





The change could happen anyday 


So said the mountaineer 


Before he turned to face his cliff 


Without a trace of fear 


Yodel-ay-hee-hoo, yodel-ay-hee-hoo 


He sang right up until 


He caught sight of the open blue 


And became a whippoorwill 


He caught sight of the open blue 


And became a whippoorwill
