[Verse 1: Todd Snider]
A little bird come and sat upon my window sill
It sat there through the fallin' rain
I watched that little bird upon my window sill
And I saw my thoughts of you come by again

[Chorus: Todd Snider & Elizabeth Cook]
Picture of my face reflected on the pane
Is that tears I see or is it rain?

[Verse 2: Todd Snider]
I remember how we talked before we said goodbye
Too young to know this world outside our door
So we laughed and said our love was free like birds to fly the wind
'Til this rain today made me think of you once more

[Chorus: Todd Snider & Elizabeth Cook]
Picture of my face reflected on the window pane
Is that tears I see or is it rain?

[Verse 3: Todd Snider]
I've no regrets about the past, I see how young we were
When our world was love and life was but a thought
Many things go many ways and many times but once
'Til our lives have passed and that love is but a thought
[Chorus: Todd Snider & Elizabeth Cook]
Picture of my face reflected on the pane
Is that tears I see or is it rain?

[Verse 4: Todd Snider]
As my thoughts go tumblin' back I wonder how you look
And I wonder if you've seen that little bird
I wonder if he's sat upon your window sill
I wonder if you'll ever hear these words

[Chorus: Todd Snider & Elizabeth Cook]
Picture of my face reflected on the pane
Is that tears I see or is it rain?
