Summer arrived on the back of a mockingbird. 

It sang a sweet melody, but couldn't seem to find the right words. 

I don't know if you've heard, but it's all over town, 

Yeah they're buzzing about it now. 



I was singing alone when the mockingbird came to me, 

Perched on my windowsill, and hummed along quietly. 

But before long she was singing along, and she said, yeah she said:



"I've been waiting so long for these words to come out, 

It's practically all I've been thinking about.

So thank you for finding the words I couldn't find on my own, 

Now I'm not alone."



Autumn was on it's way and summer was on it's way out; 

The mockingbird told me: "I change with the seasons," 

And that she was leaving town in a few days now. 



We said our goodbyes, and I secretly wished for more time, 

But the seasons are merciless. 

For a while we both stood in silence

Until she said:



"I've been waiting so long for these words to come out, 

It's practically all I've been thinking about.

So thank you for finding the words I couldn't find on my own, 

Now I'm not alone."
