those words fly like birds
the words I told you
and you promised not to forget
they're out of the cage
hovering above
still there
full of flame and beautiful songs
those words fly like birds
and maybe one day
they'll migrate like birds too
crossing walls of time
refusing to return to you
but today
those words fly like birds above our heads
they fly on
and on

and maybe one day
they'll migrate like birds too
crossing walls of time
refusing to return to you
but today
those words fly like birds above our heads
they fly on
and on
