lyrics

Birds fly over me
Take me to the place where you are waiting patiently
Gratefully I know that you’ll see
Birds fly over me
Helps you to believe in me with no naivety
And how bizarre we know we are

From my perch
An aspect of the world below
So to my search
The player of a cameo

And then she glides beside
Descending to a dive

Birds fly over me
Take me to the place where you are waiting patiently
Gratefully I know that you’ll see
Birds fly over me
Helps you to believe in me with no naivety
And how bizarre we know we are

Migrate again
Formation change; my hollow bones
I lose a friend
I’m going where the wind will blow

And in the lift and drag
There isn’t good or bad

Birds fly over me
Take me to the place where you are waiting patiently
Gratefully I know that you’ll see
Birds fly over me
Helps you to believe in me with no naivety
And how bizarre we know we are

But when the birds have flown
You won’t be on your own
Won’t be lonely any longer
When the birds have flown
You won’t be on your own
With something you won’t squander
When the birds have flown
You won’t be on your own
Won’t be lonely any longer
When the birds have flown
You won’t be on your own
With something you won’t squander

Birds fly over me
Take me to the place where you are waiting patiently
Gratefully I know that you’ll see
Birds fly over me
Helps you to believe in me with no naivety
And how bizarre we know we are

Birds fly over me
Take me to the place where you are waiting patiently
Where I see you and you see me
