Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing Ooo, ooo, ooo
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing Ooo, baby, ooo Said "Ooo"
And the days go by like a strand in the wind In the web that is my own I begin again Said to my friend baby Nothin' else mattered
He was no more than a baby then Well, he seemed broken hearted, something within him But the moment that I first laid eyes on him all alone On the edge of seventeen
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing I said "Ooo, baby, ooo" Said "Ooo"
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing I said "Ooo, baby, ooo" Said "Ooo"
Well, I went today Maybe I will go again tomorrow Yea yea, well, the music there Well, it was hauntingly familiar
Well, I see you doing what I try to do for me With the words from a poet And a voice from a choir And a melody, nothing else mattered
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing I said "Ooo, baby, ooo" Said "Ooo"
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing I said "Ooo, baby, ooo" Said "Ooo"
The clouds, never expect it When it rains But the sea changes color But the sea does not change
And so with the slow graceful Flow of age, I went forth with an Age old desire to please On the edge of seventeen, ooa
Ooa

Well, then suddenly There was no one left standing in the hall, yeah yeah In a flood of tears That no one really ever heard fall at all
Well, I went searchin' for an answer Up the stairs and down the hall And not to find an answer Just to hear the call Of a nightbird singing "Come away"
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing Ooo, baby, ooo Said "Ooo"
Just like the white winged dove Sings a song, sounds like she's singing I said "Ooo, baby, ooo" Said "Ooo"
Well, I hear you in the morning and I hear you at nightfall, sometimes to be near you Is to be unable to hear you, my love I'm a few years older than you, my love
