Yesterday I saw the ghost Of my shaded past He was standing by my window Looking kind of lost He said : “I’ve travelled through the oceans Of time and space Just to say I love you I still can’t forget”
I didn’t even stop to listen I had my things to do So I just kept on walking Staring at my shoes I guess I didn’t have the courage To look him in the face Then I heard his voice Crying at my back
And he said: You’re a strange bird You sang so sweet then you flew away You’re a weird flame You made me warm till I got burnt Oh! you’ll pay for this one day
When I got home it was late at night Nothing on TV So I just dived into the silence With a cup of tea Somehow I couldn’t rest my mind When I was in bed I still heard these words Rattling in my head
And he said: You’re a strange bird You sang so sweet then you flew away You’re a weird flame You made me warm till I got burnt Oh! you’ll pay for this one day
I woke up early in the morning Blinded by the Sun I've never felt so empty and so lonely In my life I’ve left so many ghosts behind me Trying to save my self Now I’m all alone I guess that’s the price I pay
I’m a strange bird I sing so sweet then I fly away I’m a weird flame I’ll make you warm Till you get burnt I just look for Love Does it make me bad? We all look for Love But it’s not always there
