Lyrics:

Hummingbird, hummingbird should be your name
Too restless to settle, too wild to tame
Too restless to settle, too wild to tame
Hummingbird, hummingbird should be your name
You'd hug me and kiss me like others I've known
You'd promise to love me and call me your own
And then all my dreams would be shattered apart
By the hum, hum of your hummingbird heart
Hummingbird, hummingbird, feathered so fine
If I clipped your wings, it would not make you mine
If I clipped your wings, it would not make you mine
Hummingbird, hummingbird, feathered so fine
I'd rather be lonely, I'd rather be blue
Yes, I'd rather spend my whole life without you
Than feather a nest to be shattered apart
By the hum, hum of your hummingbird heart
Hummingbird, hummingbird, winging along
No tender young blossom can hold you for long
No tender young blossom can hold you for long
Hummingbird, hummingbird, winging along
I'd rather be lonely, I'd rather be blue
Yes, I'd rather spend my whole life without you
Than feather a nest to be shattered apart
By the hum, hum of your hummingbird heart
Hummingbird, hummingbird, fly right on by
Some folks like to gamble, but darling, not I
Some folks like to gamble, but darling, not I
Hummingbird, hummingbird, fly right on by
You'd hug me and kiss me like others I've known
You'd promise to love me and call me your own
And then all my dreams would be shattered apart
By the hum, hum of your hummingbird heart
