Stephen Stills - Bluebird Revisited Lyrics
The pain of losing you well it made me an angry man
Was there something else that I could do? or was it over?
Had I the chance?
So I listened once again to my bluebird sing
Now when hearts be stilled that gentle voice is spring
Oh my precious my soul says to my blue eyed sparrow
Come back, come back. I can peal away the cages
Come back, come back. I can put away the rages
Come back, come back. Can we turn the next page together?
Listen to my bluebird laugh she can tell you why
Deep within her heart you see she knows only cryin'
There she sits aloft at perch strangest color blue
Flying is forgotten now thinks only of you
Get into all those blues must be a thousand years
And each is differently used you just know
You sit there mesmerized by the depth of her eyes
I can tell you no lies
She's got soul, she's got soul she's got soul, she's got soul
She's got soul
Soon she's goin' to fly away sadness is her own
Give herself a bath of tears and go home
So I listened once again to my bluebird sing
Oh yes and children how she made the mountains ring
Now when hearts be stilled that voice is spring
Oh my precious my soul says to my blue eyed sparrow
Fly back home, fly back home, fly back home

my sweet soul sister~
By the way this is from Stephen Stills 2 not Illegal Stills...
This is another Majestic Song by Stephen Stills...... Stills is also a Very Underrated Guitarist and Songwriter and Vocalist. As only Stephen Stills can make a Story and Song come Alive with his Lyrics and Guitar Riffs ...
One of my all time favorites.....
Stills has been with many other
Great Musicians as well through the years dating back to 1964.....
To Buffalo Springfield in 1966 and the first Buffalo Springfield Release in 1967..... Solo, Jimi Hendrix, Super Sessions with Al Cooper and Michael Bloomfield, CSNY, Manassas, to Stills/ Young band .... And the list goes on and on and on.....
The first bridge, well along in the song, is ingenious—characteristic of Suite and the man, Stills, himself.
Both versions great...BSA was my favorite one tho'...
Never heard of this song until today----didn't miss anything.
This man is unbelievable in his compositions and musical management of instruments and harmonies..
never ending pleasure in the listening .Thank you Stephen in creating many many unforgettable moments
in my life ..
that guitarsolo.............mmmmmm Devine
Just a great song, takes me back.
forget the depression the horns🎷🎸🎺🎤🎷😎♍usic will kick you out of that low~spot Eric Clapton on axe 2🎸🎸🇬🇧🇺🇸✌
Wow, you're killing me Stephen! What a great song.
Been hung in between Clinton Tn and Jacksonville Fl? for so many tears now?
One of my most loved concerts of all time. He and the gang played every song off of the LP and this song brought down the house!!! Wayne Jackson blew the doors offa the joint with that incredible trumpet solo and Nils Lofgren was the perfect choice for lead guitar.
In my Stills playlist with the original BS version and their unedited 9 minute version. Thanks for the upload!
This song is all over the place....maybe that's why I like it 😝
Boy all the memories this brings back all at once! big time like my friend!
And BTW GREAT trumpet solo I agree with Marty here : )(also Stills lead solo taking us to the end of the song and beyond, just too much : )
she got soul
I was known as someones bluebird a long time ago - this was 'our song' along with Clapton 'Wonderful tonight'
One of the GREATEST SONGS EVER! I love Stephen Stills!
I was just thinking johnny knoxville was probably from knoxville tn . bu he was a jack-ass/
One of the best all-time songs. So many elements here, blended so well. Listen to Curtis Mayfield's "Move On Up" for a similar blend of musical elements.
One of the greatest rock trumpet solos ever, thanks for sharing this with us
Good tune, but it's on Stephen Stills 2, not Illegal Stills, as the graphic would suggest.
Yes i've still got the vinyl and it is.
man, he was smitten with collins
Robert Wright ..that was his mistake ..letting her know it.then they treat you like crap!treat em mean keep em keen
@halt2045: The track where Eric Clapton performs on this album is "Marianne", I think. He definitely performed on "Go Back Home", from Steve's first album.
This version sounds like a cross between Steve and Van Morrison! Thanks for the upload!
Clapton is on this track, too (according to original vinyl liner notes)
@ L'Aquitaine
come back come back xx
Incorrect, the lead guitar at the end is Stephen Stills himself.
The guitar lead at the end of this song is performed by none other than Eric Clapton.
And it is beautiful
I just think it's a nice chorus... are you ok?
I have uploaded a live version from 1969 of this song on my channel if anyone wants to listen :)
One of the best songs of his second album LOVE this great song
Thx for the upload
The Memphis Horns amazingly sweet. This is a cross cultural wonder.
Been looking for this for absolutely ages .
However, it was not from 'Illegal Stills'.
It was the last track on side 2 from the album 'Stephen Stills 2'.
Anyway, I am just glad it is here and have sent it to a silly bird in France
so thanks merci to stevenleeita for uploading from Windsor U.K.
Still a great song though.
I love this song, up until the end bit, such a shame, I'd be happy just for that slower chorus to just go round and round.
Conversely, I would say the trumpet solo at the end is the icing on the cake. Superb. But I also like that chorus of which you speak. A pleasant conundrum, huh?
Very great and (mostly) underrated tune. The horns and especially the blues riffs at the end are killer.
Thank you for posting this
