Once I was strong as a man can be
Once I’d fight, once I’d cry
Once pebbles couldn’t drag me down
Once I made my woman as happy as she could be
She would sing, she would bring
All colors of the universe to me
That was a long time ago
My sweet girl isn’t here no more
Oh, please, bring back those days
Oh, please, bring back my strength to me
Please bring back my hummingbird
Please bring back my hummingbird to me
Once I was full as a man can be
Once I’d share, once I’d care
Once there was nothing that I couldn’t bare
Once we were free, just as everyone should be
Once her hair in the air
Was the most beautiful sight, I swear
That was a long time ago
My sweet girl isn’t here no more
Oh, please, bring back those days
Oh, please, bring back my strength to me
Please bring back my hummingbird
Please bring back my hummingbird to me
Please bring back my hummingbird
Please bring back my hummingbird to me
