The change could happen anyday   So says the whippoorwill   She hangs around for the seeds I leave   Out on the windowsill   Be-free-you-fool, be-free-you-fool   She sings all afternoon   Then, as if to show me how it's done,   She leaps into the blue      The change could happen anyday   So say my true love's eyes   They see into my shadows   With their sweet, forgiving light   She smiles and says, Come on - let's go   Let's stroll the boulevard   It's such a shame to waste the night   Just sitting in the dark      The change could happen anyday   Or so says Father Brown   I listen for that still small voice   But I just can't make it out   Beneath the constant whispering   Of the devil that I know   But who would I be if I believed?   Who am I if I don't?      The change could happen anyday   So said the mountaineer   Before he turned to face his cliff   Without a trace of fear   Yodel-ay-hee-hoo, yodel-ay-hee-hoo   He sang right up until   He caught sight of the open blue   And became a whippoorwill   He caught sight of the open blue   And became a whippoorwill
