Lyric

A little bird told me that you love meAnd I believe that you doThis little bird told me I was fallin’Fallin’ for no one but you.
There’s no use denyingI might as well confessOf all the girls I know, dearI’m sure I love you best.
The little bird told me we’d be happyAnd I believe that it’s trueThis little bird told me we’d be marriedYea, Yea, And I believe that it’s true.
We’ll have a pretty cottageNot too farAll fenced in like a movie starsWe’ll call him AceLying there by the fireplaceA goldfish pond and a wishing wellEverything is gonna turn out swell.
A little bird told me we’d be happyYea, yea, And I believe that it’s trueFor I believe that it’s trueDon’t you know that I believe that it’s trueWell baby, I believe that it’s true…
