Birds - Emiliana 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

Uuuuuuuuuu

Uuuuuuuuuu

See the sun come rising and white-wings start to fly

Like strings of pearls in the firey sky

I don’t want to close my eyes, don’t want to leave the stage now

As the leaves applaud our stay

Uuuuuuuuuu

Lend me yours 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 end

The leaves applaud the wind

Uuuuuuuuuu

Uuuuuuuuuu

Uuuuuuuuuu

Uuuuuuuuuu

Uuuuuuuuuu
