In the beginning There was nothing So empty In the space between Then you came in Turned the lights on And created What has come to be
Before I pluck your wings Cover me, please Spread your wings Cover me and
Promise this If I die before I wake, oh Promise this Take the time to say your grace On your knees You'll pray for me Promise this Be the last to kiss my lips
Alouette uette uette deployer l'aile
Alouette uette uette plumerai l'aile
Though I'm walking Through the shadows You are with me And you comfort me Lay me down now Time for sleeping But before that Would you restore me
Before I pluck your wings Cover me, please Spread your wings Cover me
Promise this If I die before I wake, oh Promise this Take the time to say your grace On your knees You'll pray for me Promise this Be the last to kiss my lips
Alouette uette uette deployer l'aile
Alouette uette uette plumerai l'aile
That's where we're hanging on And I hope you don't let me go If you ever leave me Know I wanna go with you
Promise this If I die before I wake, oh Promise this Take the time to say your grace On your knees You'll pray for me Promise this Be the last to kiss my lips
