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

You give your hand to me
And then you say hello
I can hardly speak
My heart is beating so
And anyone can tell
You think you know me well
But you don't know me
Oh you don't know the one
That thinks of you at night
Who longs to kiss your lips
And yearns to squeeze you tight
No I'm just a friend
That's all I've ever been
You just don't know me
I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
And then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away
Beside the lucky guy
You'll never, never know
The one who loves you so
You just don't know me
I never knew the art of making love
Though my heart aches with love for you
Afraid and shy, I let my chance go by
The chance that you might love me too
You give your hand to me
And then you say goodbye
I watch you walk away
Beside the lucky guy
Who'll never, never know
The one who loves you so
You just don't know me
You'll never, ever know
mmmm, cause you just don't know me
