If I was a bird I would fly high over the world Come home at night to your garden Build a nest among the branches and I'll Comb your hair with my beak
If I was a bird I would count my time in pearls Under my wings you'll find shelter you'll breed bugs and keep me well fed and I Proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly
But you wanted me to be a girl Without feathers without urge Then my wings quick dissappeared And left was only fear and I Proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly Proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly I'll have to fly I'll have to fly
If you wanted me to be a girl Without feathers without urge Then my wings quick dissappeared And left was only fear and I Proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly Proclaim the reason why I'll have to fly I'll have to fly I'll have to fly
