Birds Songtext
von Emilíana Torrini

Let′s stay awake
And listen to the dark
Before the birds
Before they all wake up

It's the ending of a play
And soon begins another
Hear the leaves applaud the wind

Ooo-oo-oooo
Ooo-oo-oooo

See the sun come rising
And white wings start to fly
Like strings of pearls
In the fiery sky


I don′t want to close my eyes
Don't want to leave the stage now
Yes, the leaves applaud our stay

Ooo-oo-oooo
Ooo-oo-oooo

Lend me your wings
And teach me how to fly
Show me when it rains
The place you go to hide

And the curtains draw again
And bow another day and
The leaves applaud the wind

Ooo-oo-oooo
Ooo-oo-oooo
Ooo-oo-oooo
Ooo-oo-oooo
Ooo-oo-oooo
