Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Whoo whoo whoo
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
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
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Said ooh baby ooh said ooh
Well I went today
Maybe I will go again tomorrow
Yeah yeah
And the music there it was
Hauntingly familiar
When I see you doing
What I try to do for me whit the
Words from a poet and the
Voice from a choir and a melody
Nothing else mattered
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Said ooh baby ooh said ooh
The clouds never expect it
When it rains
But the sea changes colours
But the sea does not change
So with the slow
Graceful flow of age
I went forth with an age old
Desire to please
On the edge of seventeen
Ooh-ah
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
Well then suddenly
There was no one
Left standing in the hall
Yeah yeah
With a flood of tears there's
That no one really
Ever heard fall at all
Oh I went searchin' for an answer
Up the stairs and down the hall
Not to find an answer
Just to hear the call
Of a nightbird
Singing come away come away come away
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
Well I hear you in the morning
And I hear you
At nightfall
Sometime to be near you is
To be unable
To hear you my love
I'm a few years older than you
My love
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
Just like the white winged dove
Sings a song
Sounds like she's singing
Ooh baby ooh said ooh
