There you go again the truth begins to bend
Like a fool I hang on every word
You promise me the moon and then you change your tune
You must be a mockingbird
A mockinbird's voice sounds so sweet but he'll say anything
Oh he'll sit outside your window and sing to you all day
Oh I want you all my darlin but with me it'd be my luck
Try to hold him he flies away
Last night I sat at home waiting by the phone
Left the porch light burning all night long
But I never heard a sound he's somewhere way 'cross town
Someone else was listening to your song
Mockinbird's voice sounds so sweet but he'll say anything
He'll sit outside your window and sing to you all day
Oh I want you all my darlin but with me it'd be my luck
Try to hold him he flies away
You're just an imitation of someone who really falls in love
When you say forever what you really mean is never
I want you all my darling but with me it'd be my lick
Try to hold him he flies away
Try to hold him he flies away
