lyrics

How many feathers does it take to make a bird fly?
Or make you pass me by, there's no knowing.
And how many rocks does it take to build up this mountain top?
Or make that river stop the way that it's flowing?

[Chorus]
Little Rose, Millie Mae
How you stole my blues away
I've gotta go straight on through
I'm gonna keep my heart, keep my heart with you

Oh how many moons will it take to pull on your tide?
Find where your secrets hide, won't you give me a sign?
And how many bones do you have to feel it in,
Before you give in, and just be mine?

[Chorus]

[Bridge]
Only one feather is pretty thin
If that's all we got, my future's looking dim
And only one bone, well my chances are fat
Do you feel more than that? Oh baby I hope you feel more than that

[Chorus]
