EMILIANA TORRINI LYRICS - Birds

"Birds"



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



uuuuuu



See the sun come rising

And white winds 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

Hear, the leaves applaud our stay



uuuuuu



Lend me your wings

And teach me how to fly

Show me when it rains

The place you go to hide



N' the curtains draw again

N' bow another day and

the leaves applaud the wind



uuuuuu

uuuuuu
