Joe Henry was a long time friend of John Denver
This tune is the last track of John's 11th album called "Spirit

Lyrics:

There are many ways of being in this circle we call life
A wise man seeks an answer, burns his candle through the night
Is a jewel just a pebble that found a way to shine
Is a hero's blood more righteous than a hobo's sip of wine
Did I speak to you one morning on some distant world away
Did you save me from an arrow, did you lay me in a grave
Were we brothers on a journey, did you teach me how to run
Were we broken by the waters, did I lie you in the sun
I dreamed you were a prophet in a meadow
I dreamed I was a mountain in the wind
I dreamed you knelt and touched me with a flower
I awoke with this: a flower in my hand
I know that love is seeing all the infinite in one
In the brotherhood of creatures; who the father, who the son
The vision of your goodness will sustain me through the cold
Take my hand now to remember when you find yourself alone
And the spirit fills the darkness of the heavens
It fills the endless yearning of the soul
It lives within a star too far to dream of
It lives within each part and is the whole
It's the fire and the wings that fly us home
Fly us home, fly us home

The Wings That Fly Us Home - John Denver/Joe Henry (Cover)

[Chorus]
I am just a clown, but I am rising strong
To the echo of my drums, I’ll prove they’re wrong

Cha-la-la-la-la
Cha-la-la-la-la

I Am Just A Clown

My World For You

😏Cuz sometimes you just wanna go outside & let the wind blow through your hair & watch life stand still for a while! 
When your day goes to hell in a hand basket, this is for you to just soak in nature & temporary forget the world's troubles, until you've refreshed yourself once again! ;) Big HUG 🤜🏻🤛🏻🤟🏻>>
🌞Thank you to my fans & follows---You're the BEST! 
Anyone want moon pie? Cuz moonshine will knock ya off your feet=>At least with pie, you can still look someone in the eye. ;) >LOL...........................😆

TALKIN’ TO THE BIRDS
Well, I might as well be talkin’ to the birds
At least, then there’s no mincin’ words
‘Cuz when it comes to you an’ me
All we do is disagree
And I might as well be talkin’ to the birds

And I might as well be walkin’ up the creek
Now, I know the meanin’ of up sh*t’s creek
‘Cuz when it comes to my money
You just take it all from me
And I might as well be walkin’ up the creek

Do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do

‘Cuz when it comes to my money
You just take it all from me
And I might as well be walkin’ up the creek

And I might as well be slippin’ down the slide
‘Cuz livin’ with you, honey ain’t no joyride
‘Cuz all you do is piss an’ moan
And then you moan an’ you groan
And I might as well be slippin’ down the slide

Do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do
Do-do-do-do-do-do, do-do, do-do-do

Yeah, all you do is piss an’ moan
And then you moan an’ you groan
And I might as well be slippin’ down the slide

Hey, little birdie, what’s the good word?
I said, Hey! Little birdie, what’s the good word?
You’re as free as you can be
Givin’ hope to humantity
Hey, little birdie, what’s the good word?

Yes, I might as well be talkin’ to the birds
At least, then there’s no mincin’ words
‘Cuz when it comes to you an’ me
All we do is disagree
And I might as well be talkin’
I might as well be talkin’
Yeh, I might as well be talkin’ to the birds.

TALKIN’ TO THE BIRDS

Sabu Vannessa Bloom

Note: In light of the recent AI breakthroughs, we feel it's important to clarify that we've been working with voice modulation since the mid-1990s – originally inspired by David Bowie's album Outside. Our approach predates AI-driven tools and is rooted in treating the voice as an instrument, shaped and sculpted through earlier technologies.

We fully understand that questioning authenticity may not be the intention – but it's worth remembering that all electronic music is, by nature, mediated and transformed. Even Nietzsche pointed out how modern tools shape us: inserting paper into a typewriter already creates a distance that handwriting does not. Perhaps birdsong is the only truly authentic sound. 🐦
